About this film+

A young martial artist loses his right arm but learns a new style of fighting to seek justice for his master. The film explores themes of loyalty and perseverance within a brutal world of rival clans. It uses a stark, high-contrast palette with bold splashes of red that stand out against dark, moody sets.
