a novel about how an idea built to justify murder collapses not under evidence but under the murderer's own conscience.
A quiet, almost documentary-toned film about how a single death inside a family breaks not just its grief but its very ability to keep living at its usual rhythm.

A film in which the organizers of mass killings in 1960s Indonesia are invited to reenact their own crimes in the film genres they love — and the camera records how their self-glorification slowly turns against them.
