"Rekorder" tells the story of a former 1980’s film cameraman who now currently works as a movie pirate operating in present day Manila. He routinely smuggles a digital camcorder into movie theaters in order to illegally record films. One night he records something else... And the footage goes viral.
Speaking of viral, one of the footage scenes in the movie indeed went viral on the internet. The scene is a CCTV video of a person withdrawing money from the ATM who suddenly gets robbed by armed robbers at gunpoint. Those who shared the video thought that the footage was authentic.
