The movie
Akira’s reputation as an assassin precedes him. When he burns out, his boss orders him to take a year off away from death. Easier said than done for a man like this...
En savoir plusOne-man-army The Fable is an unstoppable contract killer. After he massacres a group of Yakuza in a Tokyo restaurant, his boss orders him to take a gap year in Osaka and makes him promise not to kill anyone. Not exactly an easy thing to do since the local mob decides to threaten the woman of his dreams. Adapted from the manga by Minami Katsuhisa, The Fable masterfully mixes action and comedy.
