The Spirit Hunters - Action shortfilm
Interpol agent from Japan visits Finland to catch a small time criminal but all hell breaks loose as a sword wielding demon from the spirit world tries to open a portal to another world. Now she has to team up with the criminal to save the world.
Subtitled in English, Japan and Finnish voices.
We participated in a couple of martial arts film festivals (attended the London Spirit Film festival in person and got the Best International Cinematography award and got a "best shortfilm" award from the Urban Action Showcase in NY). Was really fun making this one and going to the fests!
