Description

Plays Monday, February 20 at 7:00 PM. 35mm film presentation. Released from prison, a humbled yakuza hitman navigates the shifting influence within his former criminal domain. It is there he is snarled into the seduction of a stunning woman, a sybarite dead set on igniting life at the edge of danger. Gambling with their passion, the two plunge together into the shadowy depths at the hands of acclaimed director MASAHIRO SHINODA. In a film adapted by the director from the pulp novel of SHINTARĂ” ISHIHARA, the dark, sleek result exemplified the noir genre through the lens of the Japanese New Wave.

Presented in Japanese with English subtitles.
