Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

In this Japanese gangster flick, a young man accepts the blame for a killing done by his girlfriend's brother. He then leaves Japan only to return five years later. Upon his arrival, he discovers that his girl has married an older, very rich banker. The unemployed man gets involved with a drug dealer who hires him to kill the banker who has been thwarting major drug deals. The man then finds out that Jono, his ex-girlfriend only married the banker so she could get enough money to help her brother keep his promise to go straight. Unfortunately, the brother secretly reneged on that promise and is actually using the money to raise his status in the mob. The hero decides to take on her brother's mob and kill them. Unfortunately, he is shot and dies before he can see his true love again.
