Storyline

In the rugged terrain of 1790s Britain, Tornado (Kôki,), a fierce young Japanese woman, faces the ultimate test of survival when her father's puppet samurai show is ambushed by a notorious gang led by the ruthless Sugarman (Roth) and his cunning son, Little Sugar (Lowden). After witnessing her father's brutal murder, Tornado vows to reclaim her life and seek vengeance by stealing the gang's ill-gotten gold. With her father's samurai training as her weapon, she embarks on a heart-pounding quest filled with intense action, cunning strategy, and relentless pursuit. As she navigates the treacherous landscape, Tornado must outsmart the criminals hunting her down while leaving a trail of revenge in her wake. This action survival thriller promises to deliver high-stakes excitement and a fresh take on traditional samurai lore, as Tornado fights against the odds to avenge her father and forge her own destiny. Will she succeed in her quest, or will the gang claim her life as well? — Front Row Filmed Entertainment
