Izo
The world never can be changed.
Directed by Takashi Miike
Produced by KSS, Excellent Film
A visceral, surreal meditation on rage and revenge that propels a samurai assassin through time itself, blending historical brutality with metaphysical transformation.
Izo is an assassin in the service of a Tosa lord and Imperial supporter. After killing dozens of the Shogun's men, Izo is captured and crucified. Instead of being extinguished, his rage propels him through the space-time continuum to present-day Tokyo. Here Izo transforms himself into a new, improved killing machine.
