In a slum in Edo Japan, a ronin hopes that his deceased father's former master will hire him while a disgraced hairdresser attempts to regain his pride by kidnapping the daughter of a wealthy pawnbroker, who is set to be married.
A quiet, character-driven drama that explores the quiet desperation and enduring humanity of those on the fringes of society. It's a somber, introspective look at honor and survival in a rigid social structure.
