The movie

By publishing a one billion yen reward in the newspapers, Ninagawa hopes to find his granddaughter’s murderer. The fugitive, pursued by a horde of bounty hunters, is trying to make his way to Tokyo. Vying for the Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Shield of Straw has already gained the audience’s favor. At once fascinating and confusing, mad genius Takashi Miike’s urban western will take you on a demented and breathtaking thrill ride !
