【INTRODUCTION】
A completely original film by Hugo Sakamoto, one of the most promising young directors in the Japanese action film industry. The action director is Kensuke Sonomura, who received high praise for his innovative action sequences in John Woo’s Manhunt (2017).
The film stars Akari Takaishi, known for playing Nezuko Kamado in the stage adaptation of Demon Slayer, as well as leading roles in numerous popular stage productions. Co-starring is Saori Izawa, an active stunt performer who has served as a stunt double for principal cast members in films such as Kingdom, Rurouni Kenshin: The Final Chapter / The Beginning, and Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins.
The story follows two high school girls whose true identities are assassins. As they prepare for graduation, they begin living together in an effort to become functioning members of society.
Facing the absurdities of everyday life and the complexities of human relationships, the pair gradually mature while carrying out their deadly profession. Blending comic sensibilities with dynamic action, the film creates a fresh style of Japanese cinema that can be described as a unique “comic-action” genre rarely seen in contemporary Japanese filmmaking.
【STORY】
Chisato and Mahiro are high school girls whose true identities are assassins. As they prepare to enter adulthood, they must learn to live as ordinary “members of society” while keeping their deadly profession a secret.
Caught up in the routines of work, complicated human relationships, and the many absurdities of everyday life, the two struggle to adapt to a world that feels far more challenging than any assassination assignment.
One day, while on the job, Chisato becomes entangled with a yakuza group. As tensions escalate into a deadly conflict, the pair find themselves facing a dangerous battle. Will Chisato and Mahiro survive—and what fate awaits them?
