Based on a short story by Tolstoy, the film is about a woman who seeks revenge against her former lover after spending decades in jail and finds unexpected support from the outcasts of society. &nbsp;<br>1997: Horacia has been in jail for murder for 30 years. Then new evidence comes to light, proving her innocence. She is free but broken after decades behind bars. The real murderer \u2013 her former lover \u2013 is wealthier than ever and lives in a high-security residential complex, in whose shadows Horacia meets different creatures of the night, including a transsexual prostitute, a homeless person plagued by demons and a hunchbacked egg trader. She becomes a generous friend while she patiently waits for the moment to wage her revenge. Lav Diaz has succeeded in making a visually stunning, archaic and deeply human drama about guilt and solidarity, absolution and revenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Woman Who Left \u2013 Official Trailer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MOopZgQuYz0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>LAV DIAZ<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lav Diaz was born in Cotabato, the Philippines in 1958.
