Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Sixteen years after abandoning the 47 Ronin on the eve of their crucial mission, Senoo Magozaemon (Koji Yakusho) finds his past coming back to haunt him while living deep in a vast forest. Having assumed the identity of an antiques dealer in order to guard his treacherous secret, Senoo has a chance meeting with his old ally Terasaka Kichiemon (Koichi Sato), and attempts to safeguard his secret by silencing Terasaka forever. Meanwhile, the secret to Senoo's shame resides with an adolescent girl from the forest named Kane.
