Iikura rushes to the hospital, to the bedside of his fiancée who has just attempted suicide. Upon returning home, he discovers the writings of his samurai ancestors, detailing the atrocities endured by them since the 17th century in the name of the bushido code of honor. This caste of military nobility carried out acts of violence on the orders of the feudal lords, but they suffered even more from their cruelty, often forced into ritual suicide... (Carlotta Films)
