Summary
Adaptation of an eighteenth-century play in which Gonza Sasano, a lancer, agrees to wed the daughter of his lord, although he is engaged to the sister of a fellow retainer. The fiancee's brother plots against Gonza, who is caught in an indiscretion and must flee. The rigid social morality and code of honor of old Japan is ultimately served in a bloody finale
