What happens
To Live for the Masses (Filipino: Ang Mabuhay para sa Masa) is a 2006 Philippine documentary film about the life of Philippine President Joseph Estrada. The documentary details Estrada's childhood and acting career, his rise to political prominence as mayor of San Juan in Metro Manila and his election as Senator, and finally his rise to the presidency and his ouster in the Second EDSA Revolution. Originally set to be broadcast on two television networks, ABC and UNTV, the documentary was never aired publicly after it was controversially given an "X" rating by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
