This short, which forms part of the anthology film 'Short Peace', tells the story of a Samurai who is enlisted to help protect a village from an alien monster who has crash landed nearby. Meanwhile, a giant white bear, who lives in the surrounding woods, also intervenes in the battle with the alien.

There's a lot going on in this film, which brings together several common elements of Japanese anime (samurai, sci-fi, mysticism) in an interesting, unique story, which focuses upon familiar themes of Japanese cinema (technology vs. Tradition). The artwork is high quality and there's enough action to keep this visually engaging throughout.

Worths seeing either on its own, as part of the full feature.
