Sentro Rizal sites will hold a series of showings for Rizal’s Pen, a film by Nicolas B. Pichay in celebration of the 125th Anniversary of Jose Rizal’s supreme sacrifice for his country starting December 29, 2021 until January 1, 2022.
The short film is about Patrick (played by AIR), who while contending with life under quarantine, discovers the humanistic and liberating force of the works of Jose Rizal. Reading about Rizal’s life, Patrick realizes the genius in the man and–in Rizal’s life as an exile– shadows that of Patrick’s own, whose mother is an overseas Filipino worker. Urian Best Actor 2021, Mr. Nanding Josef and Ms. Annie Luis, chanteuse, appear in special cameo roles.
This production is brought to you by the NCCA, Tanghalang Pilipino, and the Department of Foreign Affairs.
