FILM SHOWING: Look for the film “Rizal sa Dapitan” directed by Tikoy Aguiluz.

Then make a reflection paper about the film.

The life of Dr. Jose Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines, is shown in the
movie Rizal Sa Dapitan, which was directed by Tikoy Aguiluz and stars Albert
Martinez as Jose Rizal and Amanda Page as Josephine Bracken, Rizal's partner
After being sent to Dapitan in 1892, Jose Rizal started acclimating to his new
surroundings. In addition to treating his mother, Doa Teodora Alonzo, who
visited him with his sisters Maria and Narcisa, he also offered free education to
all children, became friends with Jose Asiniero, one of his students, and offered
his medical skills. When he first met his future wife-to-be, Josephine Bracken,
she was with her blind stepfather George Taufer; however, she eventually
abandoned him for Rizal. They choose to get married, but a church wedding is
rejected for political reasons. Despite initial objections from Rizal's family, the
couple decides on a common-law union and had a stillborn son they name
Francisco As the locals mourn Rizal, the movie concludes with him leaving
Dapitan. A conclusion recounts how Rizal's desire to work in Cuba led to his
capture, his execution, and the beginning of the Philippine Revolution One
might feel honored to see the Philippines' national hero do a lot of things for
the welfare of his countrymen. It will undoubtedly inspire a sense of pride and
nationalism in one's nation. The movie is about Rizal's exile in Dapitan. It
describes how he engaged in many activities as well as how he managed to
develop the place he stayed into a better one and lead it to progress through
the use of his many abilities.
