“...one of the best films of the year.” - Chris MaGee, Toronto J-Film Pow Wow

“a wild, if somewhat head-scratching ride.” - Nicholas Vroman, EL Magazine

Little does Jiro, a man who can do anything for you for a price, know that the discovery of a beautiful woman’s Rolex in a heap of rotten carnage will lead to a sordid case filled with sex, violence, and peril, and sex, violence, and peril... and sex... and so on. In other words, it’s the neo-noir of the year: grand guignol, psychotronic... existential to the point of hysteria.
