About CONTROL OF VIOLENCE
A three-way battle of hoodlums vs yakuza vs gyoza factory manager! A fierce battleground in Osaka, where territories are fought over with impunity. There, a group of hoodlums, who are in good shape and gaining momentum, have launched a series of surprise attacks on the Yakuza.
Directed by Takahiro Ishihara, CONTROL OF VIOLENCE leans on a strong ensemble — Arata Yamanaka, Takashi Nishina, Hiroko Yashiki — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2015.
