Norte, hangganan ng kasaysayan (Norte, The End of History) screening
The Dryden will screen Norte, hangganan ng kasaysayan (Norte, The End of History, Lav Diaz, Philippines 2013, 250 min., DCP) at 2 p.m.
An embittered law student commits a brutal double murder; a family man takes the fall and is forced into a harsh prison sentence; a mother and her two children wander the countryside looking for some kind of redemption. 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. Unfolding across the sun-drenched fields and dark city streets of the Filipino island of Luzon, Norte, The End of History is a tale of murder, hate, and hope from one of the world's most uncompromising cinematic visionaries.
