Jubei is trying to leave his past as a contract killer behind him, but struggles to feed his children. He finds himself forced to follow his old friend Kingo on a double man-hunt to a small town, where the sadistic and power-hungry Oichi rules. This very apt remake of Clint Eastwood’s western features a great cast and breathtaking cinematography. A must-see not only for genre fans!
