Norte, the End of History

Norte, the End of History

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.

Laz Diaz’s powerful and deeply meditative reimagining of Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment set in the modern Philippines.
