In the free-for-all chaos after World War II, black marketeer Ueda (Hiroki Matsukata, Cops vs Thugs) is robbed of a stash of morphine. He takes his brutal revenge, but is arrested for murder and sentenced to 20 years. He escapes and is caught, but no matter where they send him, Ueda won't let prison walls stop him. Directed by a master of the genre and based on the real exploits of a seven-time prison escapee, this ranks as one of the rawest entries in the 1970s cycle of Japanese true-account crime films.
Special Features: Booklet, Commentary: Audio commentary by yakuza film expert Nathan Stuart, Visual essay on Sadao Nakajima by Tom Mes; Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Filippo Di Battista.
