In the 17th century, numerous impoverished ronin travel through the country. In order to get access to prince courts, they threaten to commit Seppuku if rejected. For young Motome, the trick doesn’t work out as planned…Takashi Miike’s remake of the 1962 classic gives the story a new and fresh perspective.
