I am honoured to be receiving this award from Tim Brookes, Founder of the Endangered Alphabets Project and am humbled to be one of three Filipinos in a lineup of nine awards. I dedicate this to the people who have worked and are currently working to keep the Hanunuo Mangyan writing system and ambahan (sung poetry) alive. I would like to thank everyone who has entrusted me with this work, connected the dots for me, or given me the space to screen it. Most of all, to the Mangyan Heritage Center: Emily Lorenzo Catapang, Quint D Fansler, Lolita Fansler, Resti R. Pitogo, Uyan Daay, Ezekiel Postmal - there would not be a documentary without you. Here is a Hanunuo Mangyan poem about the responsibility we have to the land that sustains life and how we can enrich the legacy of our ancestors.
