Sympathy for the Underdog

In this gritty crime drama set in Japan, an established yakuza gang finds themselves forced to flee their familiar grounds in Yokohama following an intense power struggle with a far more dominant Tokyo-based syndicate. With no choice but to relocate and rebuild from scratch, the displaced group sets roots on the picturesque island of Okinawa, hoping for a fresh start. However, the past tends to follow those entrenched in its world, and as tensions rise and rivalries escalate, the once-exiled gang finds themselves drawn back into a violent cycle that threatens not only their own survival but also the fragile peace of their newfound home. A powerful examination of loyalty, identity, and the cost of redemption, this film takes viewers on a visceral journey through the dark underbelly of organized crime in Japan's idyllic landscapes.
