A movie to touch the hearts of young people
Sword Philippines and Asia Pacific Media Ministries team up to bring you the full-length feature evangelistic film for youth and young adults, "REBOUND, Kwento Ng Isang Naniwala...at Nagtagumpay," a story of hope and redemption.
Endeavoring to address the pressing problems of today's youth, "Rebound" deals with feelings of selfworth, the complexities of parent-child relationships, peer pressure, drugs, pre-marital sex and the toll they take on young lives. Far from being a negative paean to these problems, however, "Rebound" provides possible solutions and positive alternatives.
Noel is a small town basketball hotshot who goes to the big city to make a name for himself. but superstardom goes to his head and the pressure drives him to drugs. Noel is arrested and serves time in jail where he eventually finds God - and himself. After six years, Noel returns home - repentant, reformed and eager make amends with those he has hurt, primarily his disillusioned and hopeless father and his girlfriend, Donna whom he has abandoned in her time of great need. There he meets a group of aspiring but undisciplined basketball players led by the current town hotshot, Rey. Noel sees himself in this group and is convinced that they do not have to go through the same mistakes he committed.
Meant not only to be an effective evangelistic tool but also a first class cinematic experience, Sword and A. P. Media have taken pains to employ the best suited actors and production people for this production. "Rebound" stars two newbies to the film industry - Jam Capistrano, singer-composer and former member of the "Wise Guys," and Gabriel Valenciano, better known as a song and dance man like his vaunted parent. They are supported by film and theatre veterans Mayen Bustamante-Cadd, Danny Magisa, Archi Adamos, Jun Ofrasio, Joshua Deocareza, Khalil Kaimo, Chevy Mercado, Kevin Concepcion and Bryan Jimenez plus a score of basketball players and literally hundreds of extras.
"Rebound" is directed by Steve Cadd from the screenplay of Jaime del Mundo. Musical scored by Jeff Arcilla and the movie's theme song composed and sang by its star, Jam Capistrano.
