OFW: The Movie

synopsis

Overseas Filipino workers are deemed heroes because of their contributions to both their families and the economy they are highly commended for what they do and put on a pedestal by some, which is why so many desire to become OFWs. There is, however, more to being an OFW that people don't know about and that's exactly what we aim to shed some light on today. We have many misconceptions about working abroad due to some troubled OFWs who got killed, abused, imprisoned and the death penalty cases that made headlines rarely do we hear tales about Filipinos working abroad who found real happiness and prosperity from trying their luck on lands that are alien to them. We aim to put these false notions to rest and paint you a realistic picture of what it's like working in another land winning and victorious. Based on true stories. These Five Filipino overseas contract workers tell a plot contrary to what is perceived as ordinary and looked on the sunny side of life and work abroad in rose-colored glasses.
