Synopsis:

16 years after the fateful “revenge of the Forty-seven Ronin,” involving samurais 
from the Ako domain who avenged their leader and then commited seppuku 
(ritual suicide), the sole survivor of that incident, Kichiemon Terasaka (Koichi Sato) 
travels the country on a mission. His purpose is to find the families of the fallen 
Samurais and spread the truth of the ronin uprising.

On his way to attend the 17th Buddhist ceremony for the 47 Ronins in Kyoto at 
Choho Shindo’s (Masato Ibu) mansion, Kichiemon unexpectedly comes across 
his close & long time friend Magozaemon Senoo (Koji Yakusho) – who ran away 
the day before the ronin uprising. Prior to his disappearance, Magozaemon had 
lost his wife and had no children. His only purpose at the time was to serve 
Kuranosuke Oishi (Nizaemon Kataoka) and he swore to die for him if necessary. 
Why Magozaemon disappeared is a mystery Kichiemon still doesn’t know 
the answer too.

After his disappearance, Magozaemon changed his name and hid from the world. 
Magozaemon gave up his position as a samurair He became a merchant who 
trades antiques. He lives in a remote house, hidden in a deep bamboo grove, 
with a beautiful girl named Kane (Nanami Sakuraba). Yu (Narumi Yasuda), 
who lives near Magozaemon’s home, knew about them for the past 16 years. 
Yu adores Kane, who had no mother, and taught her etiquette, as well as 
reading and writing. Yu used to be the most popular courtesan in the famous 
Shimabara district of Kyoto. Yu eventually became a concubine of merchant Jiro
Chayashiro (Yoshi Oida), who works a fabric dealer, and gained the favor of 
the Japan’s feudal government. Now, Yu lives a quiet life.

Meanwhile in Kyoto, a puppet show takes place which brings unexpected 
good fortune for Kane. The sole successor of the Chaya family, Shuichiro 
(Koji Yamamoto), comes to watch the performance and falls in love with 
Kane at first sight. Shuichiro doesn’t know who Kane is so he asks Magozaemon 
to find Kane by using his position as a merchant …

Inhoud:

Een groep van 47 ronin samoerai vermoorden de hooggeplaatste 
Kira Yoshinaka in een legendarische plundertocht om hun geëxecuteerde
meester te wreken en diens eer te herstellen. Ze weten hierbij dondersgoed 
dat ze door deze actie gedwongen zullen worden seppuku (zelfmoord) 
te plegen. Terasaka Kichiemon krijgt echter van de leider van de groep 
Oishi Kuranosuke het bevel om stiekem te ontsnappen, zodat de feiten 
van het incident juist aan het nageslacht zullen worden doorgegeven. 
Senoo Magozaemon vlucht echter de nacht voor de overval en wordt zo 
een paria en een lafaard die zich moet verbergen. Zestien jaar na het 
incident komen beide mannen elkaar weer tegen.
