RIZAL IN DAPITAN

2. What is the movie would like to tell us?

"Difficulties are not excuses to give up; they are inspirations to continue." This
statement, we believe, was on Dr. Jose P. Rizal's thoughts while he was in Dapitan.
Even when the Spanish threatened his life, he never gave up serving his country's
cause. His exile began on July 17, 1892, in Dapitan, where he was tortured,
harassed, and threatened with death by Spaniards. This exile bolstered his
nationalism and affection for his family, the people of Dapitan, and the place
where he found pleasure. He was an exemplary person to the youth in Dapitan
since he built a school for the theme. He also taught his students arnis, wrestling,
boxing, and swimming without charging them tuition. Rizal also provided medical
help and free medicines to the underprivileged, which he did with great sincerity.
In Dapitan, he also operated on his mother's right eye. When he was in Dapitan,
one of my favorite things about him was his community projects, which included a
water system and lighting system that made people's lives simpler. In Dapitan,
where he became famous, he also worked as a farmer, businessman, scientist, and
inventor. While in Dapitan, a guy named Florencio Namanan (Pablo Mercado)
threatened his life, and Rizal demonstrated his martial arts prowess. In Dapitan, he
met Josephine Bracken, who would later become his wife. Father Antonio Obach
was opposed to the two's connection, and he insulted Rizal as a person. That
incident solidified his feelings for Josephine, who was pregnant at the time but
unfortunately miscarried. Dr. Pio Valenzuela traveled to Dapitan to inform Rizal of
the Katipunan's plans, which he had objected to. Rizal's exile came to an end on
July 31, 1896. The film "Rizal sa Dapitan" was truly excellent since it
demonstrated Rizal's love for his homeland. Because of its nationalistic message,
this is a film for Filipinos to treasure. Rizal's life was undoubtedly fascinating and
purposeful.

Rizal sa Dapitan is a fantastic portrayal of Rizal's time in Dapitan as a desterado.

Despite being a prisoner, he enjoyed life since he was able to do things he enjoyed,
such as educate youngsters and teach males the Arnis art. With the manner he
addressed Josephine Bracken, Rizal is a gentleman. A bizarre situation occurred
when a man identified himself as Pablo Mercado and claimed to be a Rizal related.
He turned out to be Florencio Namahan, a spy. Only Rizal's life in Dapitan was
depicted in the film. The events of his final days were not captured on film. At the
conclusion of the film, a brief text about Rizal's death was provided. Until his
death, Rizal never lost sight of his vision and mission for the Philippines. Rizal
was much more than a publicist. He is also a humanitarian (obviously as a result of
his volunteer medical work for the impoverished) and a sportsman. He enjoys
practicing and performing Eskrima, currently known as Arnis.

Rizal dresses decently in order to appear presentable to others, particularly

European guests. Rizal leads a healthy lifestyle. He didn't drink alcohol or wine,
but he did set aside some money for the lottery, which he won by accident.
Everywhere, rules are implemented. Even in a deserted location, certain standards
must be followed, such as natural laws. Man-made rules are not at all beneficial.
Not everything that is legal is moral. Not everything that is commanded is
beneficial. When the Spaniards established rules in the Philippines, they
imprisoned the country's citizens by the neck and even the head. People like Rizal
who stepped up to straighten up the crookedness in the world. Rizal met the last
woman of his life, Josephine Bracken, at Dapitan. He wanted to marry her, but the
church refused because Rizal refused to give up his ideals and everything he had
stated against the church. Rizal led a balanced life even while in exile. This is a call
to action for all Filipinos to be creative in the face of adversity and jail. A reminder
to everyone that life does not end if you live for others rather than for yourself.
