In a Closed Land where the sun has ceased to shine, Morteo encounters a mysterious wanderer searching for a stone he claims can bring light back to the sky. Together they cross a desolate landscape, while a dark presence follows from afar and the boundaries between identity, death and humanity slowly begin to dissolve.
In The Women and the Murderer, directors Mona Achache and Patricia Tourancheau center women—the very demographic true crime is designed to appeal to.
The film is a powerful narrative encompassing a theme that many people can identify with.
As this critic continues to look back at some of this Summer's films I have taken in, I would be remiss if I didn't mention one of the most overall unsettling trends in Hollywood over the last several years.....sequels, reboots, and remakes. Look, I am all for seeing more than one film for certain originals that made a splash, ie: "Jurassic Park", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", etc.
This inspiring true story falls nothing short of filling the audience with a passion to strive for their wildest dreams.
