rakenrol

the rakenrol tumblr is meant to be further reading. it's about the community and the music the movie serves as a love letter to. of course, we won't be able to resist promoting the movie once in a while as well. welcome to our world.

In memory of Tado we'll be doing #tributado this week, posting music videos and shorts featuring our favorite music video actor. this one's a vintage Parokya ni Edgar video for "Harana" directed by Robert Quebral.

Musician, writer, actor, director, radio host, designer, entrepreneur, comedian, activist. He was that rare person who could make you laugh at the smallest things yet consider the bigger issues at the same time, or make you simultaneously revile and admire him for refusing to take a bath for 6 weeks for the sake of art. In the early 00s Tado was the stamp of Philippine indie cinema: everyone had to have him in their films. Then he became a mainstream phenomenon, and frightened the suits because of his refusal to compromise his political views. He died on the way to yet another advocacy project, instagramming wisecracks along the way.  "kung ako ang pagpipiliin, gusto ko na maalala nila ako bilang hindi isang pulitiko kundi isang rebolusyonaryo na naghahangad ng tunay at ganap na pagbabago." Thank you for your endless passion, Tado Jimenez. There is a light that never goes out.

Q: How many times can we shamelessly plug the #rakenroldibidi launch? 

A: As many as the amount of talented friends we have. 

Everything happens later, kids :) After this, we can literally heave a sigh of relief. Can't wait.

New #Rakenroldibidi poster by Rob Cham, based on a very old and forgotten trailer study. We loff you so much, Rob. 

The launch is a scant two days away! Don't forget to show up at any of our three parties (or all of them for that matter)! This is also the first and only time the cast and crew will be doing a Q&A, so we're very excited. See you then!
