Synopsis

Kabuto appears to be a typical family man, juggling a demanding job with a wife who hassles him and a son who shows him no respect. But his frequent doctor visits are actually meetings with his handler, as Kabuto leads a secret life as a highly effective hired assassin. Weary of his deadly profession, he attempts to earn his way out with a few final contracts. However, these lucrative assignments target other professional killers, and his last job threatens to expose him and endanger his entire family.
