Synopsis
Isako retourne dans son village natal dans la préfecture d'Aomori, à l’extrême nord de l'île de Honshū, accompagnée par son amant Tetsuo. Tous deux fuient Tokyo car Tetsuo est poursuivi par un clan yakuza dont il a tué le chef. Sans argent, Tetsuo s'ennuie vite dans ce pauvre village balayé par les vents qui fait face à l'océan. Pour passer le temps il s'amuse de Yuki, la jeune fille aveugle que l'on dit née d'un inceste et donne même un coup de main à Tamezo, le pêcheur de coquillages dont le fils a fui le village avec Isako des années auparavant.Actors

This black and white film is set in November 1839, during the final decades of Japan's Tokugawa shogunate. The retired Shogun's youngest son, Lord Nariatsu, crosses into the neighboring Oshi fief, while he's hunting. Confronted by the Clan Lord Abe Masayori for trespassing in his lands of Oshi, Nariatsu kills him in a fit of pique and rides home. The Oshi fief retainers appeal to the Shogun's Council of Elders for justice. Not wishing to embarrass the Shogun's Tokugawa Clan, Chief Secretary Mizumo rewrites the event with Clan Lord Abe in the wrong and Lord Nariatsu defending himself. For this "attack," the Oshi fief is to be abolished at the end of the month, and the lands will be given to Lord Nariatsu as compensation.

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.
