About this film+

A retired detective struggles with his wife's terminal illness while dealing with violent yakuza debts. The film balances brutal outbursts of action with quiet, contemplative moments of beauty. The screen is often filled with calm ocean blues and the vivid primary colors of the main character's paintings.
