Eseng ng Tondo (lit. Eseng of Tondo) is a 1997 Philippine biographical action film directed by Fernando Poe Jr. (who produced the film)[1] under the moniker Ronwaldo Reyes and Augusto Salvador (who edited the film). The film, based on the life of Lt. Eusebio Natividad, known as Eseng 45, stars Poe as the titular policeman.[2][3][4][5]
Lt. Eusebio Natividad, known as Eseng 45, is known for his honesty, fair judgment and incredible marksmanship, which wins him admirers, but also earns him enemies who want him dead. His encounter with various women who usually serve as his informers, such as Elvie, who owns a nightclub, earns the jealousy of his wife Digna.[6]
