Kalasag ng Tubod
Kalasag ng Tubod is a documentary that centers on the Twin Lakes Natural Park in Negros Oriental, Philippines, and examines the deep relationship that exists between traditional knowledge and modern understanding in protecting natural settings. The film emphasizes how this protected region has been kept safe thanks in large part to the ethos of "bayanihan," or local solidarity. This documentary film explores the history of the Twin Lakes, from their volcanic beginnings to their contemporary position as an essential ecological and cultural resource, through a series of interviews and expert observations. The documentary describes the difficulties the community has encountered, such as being uprooted during insurgent episodes and switching from customary ways of life like farming and hunting to environmentally friendly, sustainable lifestyles.
