The indigenous Talaingod Manobo tribe lives in the Pantaron Range, one of the last remaining untouched forests and sources of water in Mindanao, Philippines. For years, they have resisted mining and logging companies who are attempting to take their land. Pangandoy (“Aspiration”) documents how the Talaingod Manobo tribe are building community-based schools as a part of their resistance against exploitation, government neglect, and land grabbing.
