What Path of the Beast is

Saki, a 17-year-old noodle vendor’s daughter, hustles between school dropouts, street romances and late-night truck stops. She quits her paramours, hoping to outrun her mother’s itinerant history. The film documents this doomed attempt at reinvention with the subtlety of a neon sign in a back alley.
