Lady Snowblood 2: Love Song of Vengeance

“Born in prison on a snowy night, she's on an endless journey of carnage”

In 1974 Japan, the assassin Yuki Kashima (Meiko Kaji) is captured by the police and sentenced to hang for her crimes. The secret police pull her off the gallows with an offer, her life in return for killing a group of revolutionaries. Toshiya Fujita puts Yuki in the middle of that deal, and she stands on the scaffold, rope still around her neck.
