What Shinobi No Mono 5: Return of Mist Saizo is
You haunt the shadows, sworn to avenge your fallen lord. But the Tokugawa Shogunate hunts you, its power absolute. Saizo's skill, honed over years, faces its greatest test. Ikehiro's stark compositions mirror Saizo's isolation. The film lingers on duty's cost.
