■ Primary Axis
- Entry: Betrayal as unpaid debt
Reason: The revenge begins from a stolen share, but the money functions as proof of erased identity.
Related Film: Payback - Middle: Individual vengeance against organization
Reason: The protagonist confronts not one enemy but a layered criminal structure that absorbs responsibility.
Related Film: Get Carter - Core: Revenge without restoration
Reason: The pursuit does not rebuild the self; it exposes a world where settlement cannot restore meaning.

■ Secondary Axes
- Professional isolation: The criminal figure is stripped down to function, movement, and fatal persistence.
Related Film: Le Samouraï - Systemic criminal abstraction: Crime appears less as passion than as hierarchy, procedure, and controlled exchange.
