Shiza

Sakura, a low-level cog in the local Mafia brigade, drafts Schizo to scour the town's gathering point for unemployed men to find any assorted machos willing to participate in illegal bare-knuckled boxing fights. These matches connect the 15-year-old to a dying boxer who asks him to give the man's love - and money - to his soon-to-be widow (played by Olga Landina, looking startlingly like a Central Asian Sissy Spacek).
