Brother

Takeshi 'Beat' Kitano directs and stars in this brutal crime thriller about a Japanese yakuza forced to flee to Los Angeles after the death of his boss. In the wake of a failed gang war, Yamamoto 'Aniki' (Kitano) arrives in Los Angeles with nothing but a new name and a bag of cash. Re-uniting with his younger brother, he uses his extensive experience as a hardened gangster, to grow a small-time drug operation into an far-reaching criminal brotherhood, attracting the attention of rival gangs with bloodthirsty consequences. Widely considered to be Japan's most important and influential director since Akira Kurosawa, Brother marks Takeshi Kitano's English language debut.
