Tokyo, 1926. Kinuyo Tanaka, sa mère Yae, son oncle Gentarō, ses deux frères Shozo et Haruji et sa sœur Tamayo s'installent dans leur nouvelle maison suite au transfert de l'actrice des studios Shimokamo de la Shōchiku situés à Kyoto à ceux de Kamata à Tokyo. Ce transfert a pu se faire grâce à l'influence de Hiroshi Shimizu qui couve la jeune actrice d'un œil protecteur. Kinuyo entretient sa famille grâce à son salaire d'actrice. Sa mère lui a demandé de ne pas adopter de nom de scène et de garder son véritable nom dans le secret espoir que sa notoriété permette de retrouver son frère ainé, Ryosuke, qui a disparu dix ans plus tôt après s'être soustrait à la conscription.

The story of the Forty-seven Ronin has been depicted in many ways, with each version focusing the emphasis on different parts of the story—the rivalry of Lords Asano and Kira, Asano's assault on Kira, Asano's sentence of seppuku immediately afterward, and the revenge attack 21 months later against Kira by the Forty-seven Loyal Retainers. Oishi Kuranosuke, Asano's chamberlain and the head of the 47 samurai, is often the primary character, and his actions are often held up as the epitome of bushido, the honor code of the samurai.

Private Mizushima (Shôji Yasui), a Japanese soldier, becomes the harp (or saung) player of Captain Inouye's (Rentarō Mikuni) group, composed of soldiers who fight and sing to raise morale in the World War II Burma Campaign. When they are offered shelter in a village, they eventually realize they are being watched by British soldiers. They retrieve their ammunition, then see the advancing force. Captain Inouye tells the men to sing, laugh and clap, to give the British the impression that they are unaware of their presence. Instead of firing at them, though, the British soldiers begin singing the same melody. They learn that the war has ended with the Japanese surrender, and so they surrender to the British.

In February 1945, the demoralized Imperial Japanese Army on Leyte is in desperate straits, cut off from support and supplies by the Allies, who are in the process of liberating the Philippine island. Private Tamura has tuberculosis and is seen as a useless burden to his company, even though it has been reduced to little more than a platoon in strength. He is ordered to commit suicide if he is unable to get admitted to a field hospital. A sympathetic soldier gives him several yams from the unit's meager supplies.
