Movie Details

Storyline

Ronth is a gripping, layered portrayal of law-enforcement life at its most raw. Through the evolving relationship of two officers with different outlooks-one experienced and cynical, the other hopeful and restless-the film paints a picture of duty, guilt, and the human cost of policing. It's not a straightforward thriller, but a slow-burn reflection on how society, systems, and self collide under the night's quiet pressure.

Tagline

Every patrol has a story. Every silence has a sound.
