Aguila Movie Plot Summary
The movie starts with the Aguila clan celebrating Daniel’s 88th birthday. However, he has been missing for eight years and his family cannot find him. As the celebration goes along, they found an unfinished biography of Daniel, written by his wife Salvacion or Sally (Charo Santos), who has already passed away a few years ago. As read by Daniel’s young grandson, Daniel was born on July 8, 1892. Shortly, there was a series of flashbacks that started in 1898, during the Spanish era.
When Daniel was only 6 years old, her mother Isabel (Amalia Fuentes) took him away from their home because her father does not agree with her marrying a poor peasant who works for them and has joined the Katipunan. In his thirties, Daniel Aguila became a military officer; and had an extramarital affair when he retired at the age of 60. Later, Mari (Christopher de Leon), Daniel’s eldest son eventually found him living a very simple life with the Aetas. Aguila is considered one of the best Filipino movies of all time.
