"Why did Murasaki Shikibu write The Tale of Genji?" is the core concept behind Genji Monogatari: Sennen no Nazo. Throughout the film scenes from both Hikaru Genji no Monogatari (光源氏の物語 Hikaru Genji's story) and Shikibu no Monogatari (式部の物語 Shikibu's story) are intertwined together. As the main question being why was The Tale of Genji, the film is truly trying to place a reason and possibilities in why Murasaki wrote The Tale of Genji.
