Synopsis
Ghost Dog lives among a flock of pigeons, on the roof of an abandoned building. Governed by an ancient samurai text, Ghost Dog is a professional killer who worships a book: Hagakure. Likewise, he remains faithful to his master, a second-rate mafioso who saved his life… He only has one friend, a French ice cream seller who doesn't speak English. He has only one hope: this kid thirsty for books. When his moral code is betrayed by the dysfunction of a mafia family that sometimes uses his services, he reacts strictly according to the Way of the Samurai. And goes until the elimination, and the complications, of the Famiglia.
