A Black hitman who models after the samurai of old finds himself targeted for death by the mob.
A cool, hip-hop infused stillness settles over this urban tale of a lone assassin living by ancient bushido codes. This quiet meditation on honor turns into a frantic hunt when the local mob decides his disciplined lifestyle is obsolete.
