Produced by Saranggola Media Productions and distributed by Viva Films, the movie centers and highlights on the most important chapters in the life of Francisco “Isko” Domagoso, as a kid who grew up in the slums of Tondo who at an early age, knew the importance and value of hard earned money and education.
His teen years wherein he experienced bullying, name calling and rejection because of his necessitous condition and how this truth challenged him to strive for a better life and how lady luck finally smiled at him when he became a teen-star in That’s Entrainment and the struggles and successes as movie star. His life as a politician is also in the movie, the tribulations and setbacks, the triumphs and victories of a dreamer who realized his aspirations.
Raikko, on portraying Isko as a boy says: “My initial reaction when I found out that I was cast as Isko, of course I was very happy because I was excited to portray the life of Sir Isko because I know there is so much goodness about him that will inspire many.”
“It was challenging to know that I will portray his life as a young boy, during the time of lime when he and his family was in their struggling stage,” Mateo carries on. “I prepared by feeling and understanding, and giving the truth needed, especially how Sir Isko as a boy, sees the condition at that time.”
Portraying the teen Isko is Mc Coy de Leon. Filling in the shoes of Domagoso as a politician is Xian Lim.
Ramon Christopher Gutierrez and Tina Paner play as the parents of Isko. Jestoni Alarcon essays Domagoso discoverer and manager, Wowie Roxas. Janno Gibbs stars as the star maker and the legend that was German Moreno. MJ Lastimosa appears as the wife of Isko.
Raiko declares: “The biggest lesson I gained from doing Sir Isko is pag gusto may parran, pag ayaw may dahilan. Si Sir Isko, gusto niyang makatulong sa kanyang magulang. Gusto niyang magkakita para sa kanyang pamilya. Kaya nagsumikap po siya.”
“You should watch the movie because it is inspiring,” concludes Raikko Mateo, “Maraming matutuhang aral, lalo na nga’t hindi madali ang buhay na pinagsimulan at pinagdaanan ni Sir Isko. He is living proof that dreams do come true if you work hard, pray and put love in every thing that you do.”
