“Why must I kill?”
In Edo period Japan, a lone ronin spends time in a village helping the farmers tend to their land. To keep his sword skills sharp, he spars daily with a farmer's son. Meanwhile, the nation is in the midst of major unrest with civil war on the horizon. One day, a group of outlaw ronin enters the village.
A quiet, contemplative journey into the life of a wandering swordsman. Beneath the surface of rural peace, simmering tensions and the ghosts of past violence promise a brutal reckoning. It feels like a storm gathering on the horizon.
