Monitte Lantas introduces herself plainly – “Ako si Monitte Lantas. Isang katutubong Tagbanwa mula sa Bayan ng Narra, Probinsya ng Palawan. (I am Monitte Lantas, an indigenous Tagbanwa from the town of Narra in the Province of Palawan.)” – but the path behind those words carries a steady, expansive story.
