Tagalog Movie
EMIR is the biggest original Filipino musical written for the screen.
It tells the story of Amelia, a Filipina from Ilocos who decides to work abroad to help her family.
She takes care of a future crown prince - Ahmed, the Sheik's son - rearing him, and in the process, introducing the young boy to the culture, values, and language of the Philippines.
More than a nanny, Amelia acts as Ahmeds surrogate mother and is even willing to offer her life to ensure his safety.
Her journey reveals, through words and music, the life that overseas Filipino workers live -- their struggles to have a better life... their dreams, and the hope that someday their hard work will finally be rewarded.
EMIR is thus far, the only movie to take on the heart and soul of the Filipino through our innate love for music.
It is a tribute to our OFWs... The hands that work, and toil in foreign lands, and yet have one home, one heart and one spirit.
The story is by Chito Rono and Jerry Gracio.
Music and lyrics by Gracio in collaboration with Gary Granada and Rody Vera.
Critics call it a landmark movie, made even more remarkable by the original music by Granada, Vin & Ebe Dancel and Diwa De Leon, with Chito Toledo as musical director and arranger.
