Set against the backdrop of New York City, MURPHY’S LAW follows Béni, a young man trapped in a cycle of self-doubt and misfortune. After a series of frustrating encounters, a surreal, chance meeting forces him to question whether he can ever break free from the invisible “gravity” pulling him toward failure, or if he’s simply destined to fall like the rest.
