Golden Kamuy (2024)

Golden Kamuy (Japanese title: ゴールデンカムイ, Gōruden Kamui) is a 2024 Japanese historical action film based on the 2014-2022 manga series of the same name by Satoru Noda. Taking place in Hokkaido, Japan in 1906, the film stars Kento Yamazaki as Saichi "Immortal" Sugimoto, a hardened and legendary veteran of the Russo-Japanese War. Sugimoto hears of a legend of a large stash of Ainu gold, hidden in Hokkaido with the directions leading to them tattooed on the backs of a group of escaped prisoners. As Sugimoto sets out to get the treasure for himself, he meets young Ainu huntress Asirpa (Anna Yamada), who joins Sugimoto on his search for the gold. The film follows Sugimoto and Asirpa as they search for the gold, and make friends and enemies along the way as they discover the many people who are also searching for the gold and the tattooed prisoners. The film was released in Japanese theaters on January 19, 2024, with a Netflix-exclusive worldwide release following on May 19 of the same year. A sequel television series, Golden Kamuy 2 -The Hunt of Prisoners in Hokkaido-, premiered in Japan on October 6, 2024 and was released globally on Netflix on February 6, 2025.
