Synopsis
Un groupe hétéroclite de neuf détenus s'évade d'une prison au Japon, un ensemble d'individus condamnés pour les crimes les plus divers et que rien n'aurait dû réunir hormis le fait de se trouver au même endroit au même moment, dans cette grande cellule collective. De la cavale qui suit ce fait divers imaginaire, Toshiaki Toyoda, réalisateur du fameux Aoi Haru [Blue Spring] crée 9 Souls (neuf âmes en français), suivant le parcours de ce groupe qui se crée pour mieux se déliter, de tous et de chacun de ces individus en recherche, mais de quoi? Un film doux et dur sur l'homme, la culpabilité et la rédemption qui mêle habilement comédie et tragédie, poésie et action dans un voyage picaresque à travers le Japon contemporain.Actors

The fracas is interrupted by the arrival of Kagami Ryohei, another transfer student, whose arrogance immediately draws the ire of the crowd.

The film's storyline has some major differences from that of the manga, most notably Dororo being a young woman, as envisioned in the video game, assuming the identity of a man. In spite of others seeing through her brash and often violent exterior, Dororo rarely concedes to her true emotions and refuses to be a "proper" woman. Hyakkimaru is also younger than his namesake in the manga, and less bitter about his circumstances, as well.
