Summary
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. Selected as the Official Filipino entry for Best Foreign Language Film at the **Academy Awards.** Nominated for Best International Film at the **Film Independent Spirit Awards**. Nominated for an Un Certain Regard Award at the **Cannes Film Festival**. *"Powerful and humbling, this 2013 drama is worth every minute you're willing to give it." - J.R. Jones, **Chicago Reader***
