The documentary serves as a tribute to National Artist for Cinema Gerardo de Leon in celebration of his Centennial Year. โSalamat sa Alaala.โ is inspired by the music composed by the late film director when he was a teenager playing background music for silent movies in Manila theatres. The video opens up with a capsulated history of the birth of the Filipino movies followed by a series of shots of veteran actresses, the academe and the young generation of filmmakers affirming his unique qualities as a world-class film figure.
