Synopsis

It is a small rural village whose main attraction is a brothel where the towns people gather for drinks and joviality at day's end. This generally seems to result in much head-knocking and pitiful sword flailing as the poverty-stricken ronin fuel their depression and anger with warm sake. Bull, the brothel's bouncer whose good-natured ferocity clearly makes him the right man for the job. He secretly loves Obun, the cheerful and hard-working sister of another ronin who has taken up the smelly business of bird-breeding in order to survive.

Awards: 1991: Premios de la Academia Japonesa: Best Supporting Actor. 5 nominations
