What Samurai Vendetta is

You wander Edo-period Japan as a low-ranking retainer of Lord Asano when the vendetta erupts between his clan and the Kira family. Your own lord’s death splits the samurai into two camps you once drank with. A director of period films sidesteps purity, letting violence and regret move at walking pace until one side must choose between duty and friendship.
