: The Movie, also known to its international title Redeem Her Honor, is a 1995 Philippine legal drama anthology film written by Ricky Lee and directed by Marilou Diaz-Abaya.
It is the film adaptation of the legal drama Kapag May Katwiran... Ipaglaban Mo!, aired on ABS-CBN.
Jose C. Sison, the presenter of the mentioned television program, the film is divided into two separate segments, both tackling real-life criminal cases of rape.
The first segment stars Sharmaine Arnaiz, Ronaldo Valdez, Nida Blanca, and Elizabeth Oropesa while the second and last segment stars Chin Chin Gutierrez, Joel Torre, Ricky Davao, and Gina Alajar.
The restored version was released on March 17, 2022, on KTX.ph, as part of the commemoration of Ricky Lee's contributions to Philippine cinema.
Jose C. Sison presents two separate cases of rape in the court: one is about qualified seduction, committed by Rosendo de Castro to her niece by marriage, and one case of rape, committed by Alan Delos Santos to his ex-girlfriend who is already married.
On the following day, Maria attempts to leave the house but Rosendo forbids her and bribes her with amounts of money.
Later on, Feliza began threatening them violently because Maria told her mother that she was seduced and raped by Rosendo, whom she called an "animal" for the thing he had done to her daughter.
On the following morning, Maria and Feliza went to the town's police station to report the crime against Rosendo and later gained a lawyer who would handle the case against him.
At the court, testimonies began to be told including the discovery by Dr. Ramon Layug, the medical examiner, that Maria sustained numerous hymenal lacerations as a result of Rosendo's numerous times of seduction and rape and Maria demonstrated how she was seduced and raped by Rosendo.
On that same occasion, Feliza exposes the dirty crime of Rosendo to every guest of the party and calls her sister a "hypocrite" for siding with her husband over her blood relative.
Gilda Cuevas is a high school teacher who is currently engaged to Daniel, a manager of a rural bank.
On the same night, while Gilda was unconscious due to the effects of the drug poured into her drink by Alan, he raped her.
When Alan learned that Gilda gave birth, he begged to let him see the child and he will give him financial support.
When Alan took the witness stand, Lilia showed to him a foil wrapper of the drug that he used to put Gilda unconscious.
After film and television director Marilou Diaz-Abaya finished directing Ang Ika-11 na Utos: Mahalin Mo ang Asawa Mo in 1994, Charo Santos-Concio, the executive producer of Star Cinema and one of the programming heads of ABS-CBN, asked the director if she has seen Kapag May Katwiran... Ipaglaban Mo!, a legal drama that dramatizes real-life criminal cases, and if she wanted to direct the film version of the show.
