Cinematic Tokyo Program
DOUBLE OR NOTHING
Online
Inspired by an anecdote from booming Tokyo in the 1980s, the film tells the glamorous story of the real estate shark Akio Kashiwagi.
Akio's great passion is illegal gambling in the underworld. An American is on his trail and tries to track down stolen money. He realizes that he can only win it back at the gambling table. The master gambler Akio accepts the challenge. However, he doesn't realize that his only really dangerous enemy in the game is himself with his insatiable greed for more and more.
