The Miracle of Joe, the Petrel

“He avenges himself and escapes far south to the Philippines. He lives only for today. That's his youth.”

In Okinawa, a Japanese-Filipino gangster named Joe kills an Okinawan mobster.

He meets Yoko, a saloon girl, who looks after him, but soon Joe's enemies show up, determined to make Joe pay.
