Desperado Outpost

You seek vengeance for your brother's murder at a desolate outpost in China. You arrive posing as a journalist. But a clash with bandits reveals hidden truths. Okamoto’s early war film simmers with the genre’s moral ambiguities. It leaves one with a sense of lives spent, and lost, far from home.
