UNRAVELLING AT THE SPEED OF LIFE.

An embittered law student commits a brutal double murder and walks free, while an innocent family man absorbs the punishment. As years pass behind bars, the man’s quiet endurance contrasts with the killer’s intellectual spirals and a grieving family’s search for meaning.

Lav Diaz's monumental reimagining of Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment" — set in the modern Philippines and selected for Cannes Un Certain Regard — rewards the patience it demands, building to an emotional weight that few films of any length can match. The seventeenth highest-rated film of 2014 on Letterboxd.
