Synopsis

The Spaniards call her La Generala, the General. But to an Itneg tribe in Abra in the northern part of Las Islas Filipinas, she is simply Ilang, the once little girl who was forced to leave the mountain village of her Itneg mother so that she would grow up in the ways of her Spanish father. And in that mountain village, she also left behind an Itneg boy who promised to bring her back.After the death of her husband, now she is back, as leader of the Ilocano rebels fighting for their independence from the Spanish, asking for help from the warriors of her mother’s Itneg tribe, now led by the boy she left behind.Will the Itnegs help? Will they join a fight for a cause that does not concern them? Will they die for the Ilocanos who treat them with suspicion and contempt and see them as uncivilized savages? Will the boy who had not stopped loving her and who is now the man that the Itneg warriors follow, help the little girl, now the feared leader of the rebels, and in the process avenge her Ilocano husband?This is a story of Gabriela Silang, the Joan of Arc of the Philippines and the Itneg warrior who never stopped loving her and the Spanish Capitán who was determined to stop her at all cost.
