Sawa, orphaned as a child by murderous thugs, now targets the scourge of society as a trained killer for a mercenary syndicate.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A visceral descent into the fractured psyche of a teenage assassin caught between her manufactured purpose and the possibility of escape. This is stylized violence with psychological weight, propulsive and unsettling in equal measure.
