Movie Picture

Grime 2013

A depiction between a wrong doer and the authorities with questionable characters. A moral question arises when a Maguindanawon housewife, Nhorsida whose hardpressed life forced her to peddle drugs was arrested with his innocent husband by the police. The couple while simply walking along a busy street but on the way to deliver the illegal substance is suddenly man-handled by the police. Despite the absence of a buy bust operation, the police claims and makes up a story of a drug trade. Reports in the news declare the couple having been arrested through a buy-bust operation, when no buy-bust took place. They then divide the supposed fee of Nhorsida for running drugs for Amira, like spoils of war and leave only a small portion to be declared as marked money.
