Zan - Killing

You're a samurai farmer tilling soil in a sunbaked village, your blade rusting by the door, when a conscript's draft notice flutters down from the hills. The rice paddies won't save you now. Tsukamoto shoots it like a fever dream of duty and dirt, 16mm grain pulsing under summer heat.
