I am: Vigilant and Dauntless

Lingua Liberatia presents an animated fictional film that represents the solemn duties and responsibilities of the Filipinos for the next six years. Meet May — Malaya Sassi. 

I am: Vigilant and Dauntless

“In a museum that holds our archives, I have come here to explore and learn with vigilant eyes. The truth has no other versions and should not be in hiding. With dauntlessness, I am here to conquer and look for what should prevail— the truth. 

I'll watch the world as they watch me look for and stand beside what is right. With my third eye that sees even the ones in hiding, I will dig for the truth purposely hidden six feet under and watch it crawl to the highest peaks. 

Today, I have not come here alone. I am here to fight with the same people who fought for this country's freedom. I have come here to fight with people who took off their masks and chose to stand for the truth.” - Malaya Sassi 

The battle may seem over. But, oh darling, this is just the start. May is not fighting for herself, but she is fighting for her homeland— The Pearl of the Orient Seas. 

Readers, please be vigilant and dauntless, especially during this time. #StoriesOfLiLib
