Switchblade Comb

Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645) was an unrivaled swordsman in the days when internal wars in Japan had virtually ended. Nevertheless, he wrote a master treatise on military strategy, The Book of Five Rings and sought “the way” to enlighten his spirit and cultivate his mind. But could this image have been manufactured by the generations that followed…?

Written and produced by Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell).

Opens in Japan on June 13.
