A glacial, visually austere neo-noir about a professional assassin's isolation and inevitable downfall, built on paranoia, style, and existential emptiness.

After carrying out a flawlessly planned hit, Jef Costello, a contract killer with samurai instincts, finds himself caught between a persistent police investigator and a ruthless employer, and not even his armor of fedora and trench coat can protect him.
