Norte, the end of history
Lav Diaz's epic reimagining of Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment is both an intimate human drama and a cosmic treatise on the origin of evil. In the northern Philippine province of Luzon, a law-school dropout commits a horrific double murder; a gentle family man takes the fall and receives a life sentence, leaving behind a wife and two kids. Unfolding across the sun drenched fields and dark city streets of the Filipino island of Luzon, this is a tale of murder, hate and hope from one of the world's most uncompromising cinematic visionaries.
