BAHAY KUBO"
(Reflection about the movie)

May 17, 2023

Bahay Kubo is a heartwarming story about a mother's love for her children. Eden, a loving mother who works hard to provide for her family, is truly remarkable. Her performance is both touching and inspiring, as she shows the sacrifices that a mother will make for her children. The movie is also a tribute to Filipino culture and traditions, as it showcases the beauty of rural life in the Philippines.

The cinematography is breathtaking, as it captures the lush greenery and simplicity of rural living. The music in the film is also noteworthy, as it adds to the emotional impact of the story. The movie's message is clear which is, no matter how difficult life may be, love and family will always prevail. The movie shows how important love and forgiveness are in every family. I have realized that being religious and having a dept of gratitude towards our parents are important values in every Filipino family.

The movie is a reminder of the importance of family, love, and the sacrifices that parents make for their children. That's why we should always love, respect, and understand our parents and help them in any way we can, because doing so will let them know that we appreciate their hard work and sacrifices for us. This movie is a testament to the beauty of Filipino culture and traditions, and it is a tribute to all the hardworking mothers out there who do everything for their families
