Five Rizal Poems in One Film Equals “A MI PATRIA”
June 1, 20125 in 1, that’s A mi Patria!!! Literally, To my Fatherland. But I preferred the title To my Motherland or Inang-Bayan. 5 distinct films within a film makes it an omnibus film, or a collection, or an anthology of Dr. Jose Rizal’s most known patriotic poems. Love for the Philippines binds all five, so that Rizal’s dedication title on NOLI ME TANGERE – A mi Patria – fits our film that took me an entire year to finish – FEB 2011 to FEB 2012. I finished as targeted — that is, producing and finishing within the Sesquicentennial Year of Dr. Rizal.
