Jose Rizal

In the story of Jose Rizal starring Cesar Montano, it all started with a man writing a certain novel that illustrates the bad things about how spaniards treat the filipinos. He started to tell his true life. Then a day came that Rizal was about to go Ateneo de Municipal on 1872, to study. Many years passed, he became a college student at UST. He used to be bullied by the other spaniards that was also studying in UST. Then a day came that Rizal got into a fight, while they were having a meeting at their school. He fainted after their fight, then he woke up lying on the bed where he saw his uncle and his fellow classmates, when his uncle is about to leave his uncle asked his daughter Leonora or also known as Maria Clara, to take care of Jose Rizal, then Maria Clara asked Pepe to recite a poem for her. After few years passed Rizal was sent to Europe to study his doctorate, he is always the top student of the class. After he studied he made 2 novels entitled Noli Me Tangere as his first novel and El Filibusterismo as his second novel. When he is in Spain he joined an organization called La Solidaridad, the time came when Pepe and Del Pilar got into an arguement about who will be the president of their organization, Del Pilar wanted himself to be the president but one of the members insisted that Rizal should be the president, this made Rizal go back to the Philippines and made a organization called La Liga Filipino where he met Bonifacio, who was a great fan of him.Then after a few days, he recieved a letter from his brother and his cousin. In his brother's letter, it states that the spaniards forced the filipinos to vacate their properties. And in his cousins letter (Leonora) she stated that she will be marrying an English man. And even if she will be marrying another man and not Pepe, she will still remember him through out her life. After a few days, he went to the Supreme Court and faced the judges but till the end, he was sentenced to die. And on December 31, he was shot at Bagumbayan. His death resulted to a full scale rebelion and movements of the Katipunan and its Legion.
