The Dryden will screen Ang babaeng humayo (The Woman Who Left, Lav Diaz, Philippines 2016, 226 min., DCP, Tagalog w/subtitles).

Winner of the Golden Lion at the 2016 Venice Film Festival, Filipino filmmaker Lav Diaz's epic story of revenge deferred functions as a tale of urban theater and class warfare. After thirty years in prison, a woman discovers that her friend and fellow inmate committed the murder of which she was accused. Inspired by Tolstoy, The Woman Who Left is a sensitive expression of family and forgiveness.
