Japan, early 18th century. Soza, a young samurai with little talent for the trade, is sent by his family to Edo (modern-day Tokyo) to avenge his father’s murder. When he finally finds the man who orphaned him—not a cruel warrior but a simple worker—he must decide whether to kill him or commit hara-kiri. A gentle, non-violent comedy that offers a reflection on life and its quiet gifts.
