Program Note
Justice is nowhere to be found when the world is overwhelmed by corruption and violence. The talented director from the Philippines, Erik Matti, has created a chronicle of the experiences of a people whose lives intersect. There is a journalist named Sisoy who has to endure adversity to survive in a wild jungle of a city. Following the disappearance of his longtime colleague and his family, Sisoy sets out to investigate what has happened. Meanwhile, Roman is sentenced to life in prison for crimes he didn′t commit. He languishes in prison, where he is regularly hired as an assassin. He is willing to use any means to escape. In the midst of an overflowing chaos with corrupt bureaucrats and false news items, Sisoy persistently pursues the truth behind where the eight missing people have ended up. The closer he gets to the truth, the more he feels betrayed and angry with the politicians he used to support. And as he becomes Roman′s next target, the two men cannot avoid a deadly collision.
