Filipino existential drama directed by Lav Diaz. A contemporary reimagining of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novel 'Crime and Punishment', the film follows Fabian (Sid Lucero), a young student who has grown tired of the way his country is run and the rules and laws which govern society. In an attempt to personally transcend these laws, he acts out by committing murder; believing that his crime will result in improving the lives of those in debt to his victim, Magda (Mae Paner), an elderly moneylender. As another innocent man is jailed for the crime and forced to accept his fate, Fabian roams free, but will guilt catch up with him eventually?

Please note this is a region B Blu-ray and will require a region B or region free Blu-ray player in order to play.  In this reimagining of Crime and Punishment, set in the northern Philippine province of Luzon, Fabian, a law-school drop-out, frustrated with his country's never-ending cycle of betrayal and apathy, commits a horrific double murder; a gentle family man, Joaquin, takes the blame and receives a life sentence, leaving behind his wife Eliza and two children, whilst Fabian roams free, and is taken over by evil. Joaquin is a simple man who finds life in prison more tolerable when something mysterious and strange starts happening to him.
