Plot:
Never Underestimate a Girl with Nothing to Lose. Based on the groundbreaking cult-classic anime, "Kite" tells the story of Sawa (India Eisley, "The Secret Life of the American Teenager", "Underworld: Awakening"), a young woman living in a corrupt society where crime and gangs terrorize the streets. When Sawa's mother and policeman father are found victims of a grisly double homicide, she begins a ruthless pursuit for the man who murdered them. With help from her father's ex-partner Karl Aker (Samuel L. Jackson, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier", "The Avengers", "Django Unchained"), and a mysterious friend from her past (Callan McAuliffe, "The Great Gatsby", "I Am Number Four"), she becomes a merciless teen assassin, blasting her way through the dark world of human trafficking, only to uncover a devastating truth.
