Trivia
Having been offered a small budget to make two films, director Kiyoshi Kurosawa and writer Hiroshi Takahashi each hastily wrote scripts. Both were versions of the same basic premise: a father seeks vengeance. Hiroshi Takahashi wrote Hebi no michi (1998) and Kiyoshi Kurosawa wrote Kumo no hitomi (1998) with the collaboration of Yôichi Nishiyama , and Kiyoshi Kurosawa ended up directing both films.

Goofs
Microphone boom is visible on the top side of the screen while the protagonist and his wife are eating close to the end of the film.

The emptyness of revenge

A strange story of a man who descends into a funk after he tracks down and slowly kills the man who raped and killed his young daughter. Operating in a daze, he then gets caught up in the underworld where his shattered sense of self leads to betrayal. Slow paced and confusing, this is not comfortable to sit through.
