Description

Weary of the rigid codes of the underworld, gambler Tokijiro (Kinnosuke Nakamura, Goyokin) wanders Japan in search of freedom. But escape proves to be impossible when an obligation to a gang boss leaves him with no choice but to kill a man. To atone for his crime, he vows to take care of his victim’s widow and young son. But the gang won’t rest until they’ve killed the entire family - including the man who stands in their way. With this breathtakingly stylised film, Tai Kato broke all the conventions of the yakuza genre, fusing blood-spurting action with melodrama worthy of Japanese cinema’s greatest masters. EXTRAS: LIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY SPECIAL FEATURES, High-Definition digital transfer, Uncompressed mono PCM audio, Interview with film critic Koushi Ueno about the film’s place in genre cinema history (2024), A visual essay on star Kinnosuke Nakamura by Japanese cinema expert Robin Gatto (2024), New and improved English subtitle translation, Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Time Tomorrow, Limited edition booklet featuring new writing by scholar Ivo Smits and a newly translated archival review
