Description:
Saigo no Chushingura - based on Shoichiro Ikemiya’s 1994 novel which is a fictional story based on a real historical event.
In early 18th Century Japan, a group of 47 Samurai plotted and carried out an assault on a lord's estate in order to avenge the wrongful death of their own lord. Following custom, after the act, 46 of them commit ritual suicide, and are honored as heroes by all Samurai thereafter.
The 47th Samurai is selected to remain alive, in order to travel the land and succor the dependents of the 46, while bearing witness to their bravery. That individual is Kichiemon Terasaka, and as our story opens, he has just completed 16 years of travel, to find and aid those families whom he had been instructed to help. He returns to Kyoto, to stay with another lord while awaiting the 17th-year ceremony honoring the 46.
While there, he thinks he spies the one disgrace of his group, the Samurai Magozaemon Seno, who ran away the night before the assault and who hasn't been seen since. He's living with a young woman, Miss Kane in a modest home on the outskirts of town, and he holds his secrets from everyone. But secrets can't always stay hidden, not after 16 years....
