Years ago, the young Five Fingers fought for the rural town of Marseilles against brutal police oppression. Now, after fleeing in disgrace, Tau, one of them, returns to Marseilles, seeking only a peaceful life. When he finds the town under new threat, he must reluctantly fight to free it.

VIBE

A dusty, sun-baked neo-Western that feels like a fever dream. It's a brutal, operatic tale of betrayal and vengeance, set against a backdrop of stark poverty and systemic corruption. The violence is unflinching, the atmosphere thick with dread.
