ORTIGASCINEMAS

Rey Valera, played by RK Bagatsing, relives the inspirations - people, situations, communities, and times - that spurred him to compose some of his most popular and deeply meaningful Original Pilipino Music hits across the decades of his iconic career. Rey chooses some of his OPM blockbusters to weave a tapestry of the human condition of his reflections on the stories of what make the Filipino a Filipino and composites of some of the people he encountered in his life. He immerses into why and how he was able to create Kahit Maputi na ang Buhok Ko, Malayo Pa Ang Umaga, Mr. DJ, Pangako sa Yo, Maging Sino Ka Man and some of the hit songs performed by Rico Puno. Rey reveals and returns to the original intent and circumstances of each of these signature songs in their contextual history or life settings. Some of the songs are often remembered as soundtracks of memorable Filipino movies, but their origins tell different stories.
