Murakawa, a weary old Yakuza, is the pawn of opposing clans bent on eliminating him and his men. To escape a violent gang war, his group takes refuge in an isolated house by the sea. The remaining members kill time playing children’s games, until the conflict breaks out on the beach…

 

A masterpiece of minimalism, Kitano’s Sonatine is an outstanding “Yakuza thriller”, combining beauty and death in a masquerade of play and violence.
