From The Onion Cellar:

You are invited to the screening of “Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai”.

GHOST DOG: THE WAY OF THE SAMURAI (1999)
116′ / Dir – Jim Jarmusch

“A surreal crime drama told as only Jim Jarmusch could, Ghost Dog tells the story of an African-American hit man living in an unidentified but run-down city.

Known for his gift of being able to come and go without people noticing him, Ghost Dog is a self-taught samurai who is obsessed with order and his strict personal moral code, drawn from the philosophies of the Japanese warriors.

When a gang of Italian mafia decide he must be executed, Ghost Dog leaps into action, methodically wiping out his many enemies.

Along with a dizzying series of stylized shoot-outs, Ghost Dog also features carrier pigeons, characters who read Rashomon, a French-speaking ice cream man, and a score by RZA from the top-selling hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan.”
