Zenjiro (Masaru Shiga) is a low‑life criminal who wanders Japan with a raucous gang of crooks, gamblers and rapists. After his latest venture—raping a samurai’s wife—he discovers his lover Okoyo (Eiko Matsuda) has been taken as a concubine by Shogun Tokugawa Ietsuna (Kantaro Suga). Determined to rescue her, Zenjiro becomes entangled in a web of murderous palace intrigue.
