Measure 4 Measure

Coming Soon

After seeking shelter during a public shooting spree in the housing estate’s twin towers, love blooms between the introverted aspiring musician Claudio (Gilbertson) and university student Jaiwara (Smart).

Their relationship eventually attracts the attention of Farouk (Bazzi), her gangster uncle whose men warn Claudio off with a savage beating. In an attempt to create a new life together, the two decide to run away. Their plan is thwarted when Claudio is arrested on trumped up charges and thrown into prison where a world of pain and likely death awaits him.

Claudio reaches out to Jaiwara who in turn is directed to Duke (Weaving), an old school criminal, to ask for help but discovers he is in exile. His deputy Angelo is instantly besotted by the virtuous and innocent beauty of Jaiwara and agrees to assist securing Claudio’s release in return for sex. Through desperation and fear, Claudio begs Jaiwara to do so.

The decision to ask such a thing haunts Claudio as he lingers in prison. Meanwhile, Angelo continues to ply meth at the flats despite Duke’s warnings.
