EL Presidente - Reflection Paper

The El Presidente movie is all about the life of the first President of the Philippine Republic. The story focus on the life of General Emilio Aguinaldo who was elected by the leaders of Katipunan that roled by Governor Jeorge "ER" Estregan'

The Story tells me about the life of Emilio Aguinaldo and the hardships he had encountered during his time to win the battles against Spanish Colonization to the Philippines and how he joined and became a member of KATIPUNAN and have a name of MAGDALO.

In this movie it shows the flashback of  life of General Emilio Aguinaldo that in his childhood life he became a tax collector together with his friend that on his childhood he met a fortune teller that tells him what he would be in future, it tellls that he would become a king of his nation and he will leave a long life , but there is also a warning to him that there would be many circumstances coming to his life as a President . Many of them will attempt to replace his throne as a leader of his colony and being the President of the Philippines.

The movie also shows the battles of Emilio Aguinaldo to protect his members and his troops in his jurisdiction or on his colony against the Spanish occupation for the freedom of the Philippines. The movie also shows the preparation of Emilio Aguinaldo and his troop towards sultan. In this movie shows how Emilio Aguinaldo was elected as a President of the Philippine Republic. It was started when the committee of Katipunan decided to have an election of who would be their President and leaders under the gabinet of the President. Immediately the committee elected the following persons, Andres Boniacio, Mariano Trias, and Emilio Aguinaldo. The founder of Pamahalaang Himagsikan is Andres Bonifacio who also called their SUPREMO of KATIPUNAN became angry when he got a lower position in the gabinet.

After the election Emilio Aguinaldo was proclaimed officially the newly elected and the first President of the Philippine Republic, because of that Andres Bonifacio became bitter against Emilio Aguinaldo and he decided to destroy Aguinaldo's leadership. 

After the juris proved that Bonifacio brothers are found guilty, Emilio Aguinaldo sentence them into their own death.

After the Americans trick Aguinaldo that they will help the Philippines to get their freedom against Spanish colony, but instead the Americans used Emilio Aguinaldo name for their own agenda, but Aguinaldo do his best to fight and to get our freedom.

After I watched this movie El Presidente I've realize that their were so many trials and circumstances they've trail, many self were sacrificed their lives fighting for freedom against traitors and for those unreliable persons on that event. that before we got our freedom there were super suffering they have experienced; blood shred and many died.

The movie El Presidente for me is very interesting movie, because it shows me a lots on how our Filipino heroes are great to get back our freedom against all the colonies of Spanish, Americans, and Japanese.
