A Mother's Story

A Mother's Story


This movie titled A Mother's Story was been shown in theaters across the North America and Europe and it captured the hearts not only the OFW's but also the Filipina mothers who find life abroad very complicating. This movie is as inspiring as the 2008 drama movie, Caregiver. This is the TFC Original Movie but now for the first time, A Mother's Story is now in the Philippines and most Filipino families are now ready to see Pokwang in a very different perspective in this touching movie.

You sure know that A Mother's Story is more like Caregiver but for Pokwang, she's a visionary portraying the role of a mother who was an OFW in the USA. Surely it was a very difficult experience for her as an OFW but with all of the struggles she faced several moments ago, how can she cope up with her family despite her struggling moments as an OFW?

Yes, this movie is a bit painful to watch but it served as an inspiration to our mothers. Once you watch this movie, you have finally realized how life was if you were like Pokwang, a mother who separates her family for working overseas but found out that working abroad can be a very painful, traumatic experience and how did your family react after years of your loss. Well, you get the point but hey, there are some appeal points to consider on this movie especially the part when Pokwang said to the daughter, played by Xyriel Manabat. "My mother is beautiful, doesn't she? Maganda ang nanay ko. Hindi naman di ba?"

My Verdict: COOL (if you're a mother)
