In a medieval Japan populated by strange creatures, war between two clans threatens. To prevent the violence from escalating, a young ninja with extraordinary talents is tasked with infiltrating the opposing camp and seizing the arrow, the only clue to the accident that sparked the powder keg...

In this breathtaking and entirely silent epic, Hugues Micol immerses us in a fantastical and fantasized medieval Japan, populated by giant amphibians, mutant fish and anthropomorphic yokai. He summons the codes of chanbara, as found in the films of Akira Kurosawa, to create spectacular aerial combat scenes with dizzying framing.

Hugues Micol once again reinvents his characteristic style by drawing his ambition from engraving, giving free rein to new and jubilant visual impulses. A breathtaking graphic masterpiece
