About I Carry the World
A riches story amidst the filth and squalor of the Smokey Mountain. A scavenger among the garbage who had to carry her crippled mother on her back while begging on the steps of the Manila Cathedral. Raped by an unknown man she left her poverty laden existence and won success as a singer.
Directed by Lino Brocka, I Carry the World leans on a strong ensemble — Sharon Cuneta, Tonton Gutierrez, Loretta Marquez — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 1987.
