A stylish, kinetic action-thriller built on betrayal and identity crisis, where a woman discovers her yakuza heritage while navigating paranoia about those closest to her.

In Brazil, Akemi finds out that she's the heiress to the Yakuza empire. Just after that, her destiny enters a spiral of violence and mystery, where a gaijin (foreigner) who's been protecting her all this time, Shirô, may have been actually sent to kill her.
