Director Akihiko Shiota’s vision of Ozamu Tezuka’s manga Dororo is a fun, popcorn movie. The story follows a child whose father made a deal with 48 demons. The father is granted the power to rule the world in exchange for his son to be divided amongst the demons. Each demon gets a body part and what is left is born. Like Moses, the baby is put into a basket and set adrift. An old man finds the child and raises him as his own. He crafts the missing body parts out of clay making the kid a Golem from Jewish myth.
