Abstract/Summary

Rosita is a full-length screenplay. This thesis is an attempt to narrate the tradition of storytelling and how it is an entertaining and insightful writing strategy. As it is a work heavily rooted in speculative fiction, the computer-generated imagery (CGI) visual effects that could be added unto a film would be best to visualize the essence of a speculative fiction story. As Rosita is a 12-year-old girl, she was still gullible to the pranks of the creatures that live with the humans, for example would be the duwendes, kapres, and such. This screenplay also aims to show the importance of using storytelling as a very potent writing strategy on how it manages to give insights on the human condition, of culture, and the story of a nation. It is with hope that my attempt to write a screenplay is to be produced and shown on the big screen to achieve complicity of the project. Nonetheless, even if it is not produced, my screenplay as literary text would serve as objective of my thesis.
