| They took arms against the tide of history! |
It is 1863. The arrival of Commander Perry's Black Ships have forced the already-feeble Shogunate
to open Japan to western trade. Rebellious Daimyo, seeing a chance to seize power, are campaigning
for the restoration of Emperor to a position of actual power (with them, of course, providing
“guidance”).
In an era of chaos and uncertainty, a small band of ronin and farmers band together to
support the Shogunate and keep the peace in Kyoto, the Imperial city, a hotbed of intriuge and sedition.
No matter what it takes, even murder, they vow to preserve the traditions of their forefathers.
Toshiro Mifune leads an all-star cast in this classic true story of men who achieved immortality by
battling the inexorable tide of history!
