Description:

Sono Kido wo Tohtte - Legendary Director Kon Ichikawa has adapted yet another traditional Shugoro Yamamoto story about a lady with amnesia and her understanding Samurai husband.

Set in the 16th century, an ambitious young Samurai is adopted into a noble household, thereby attaining the necessary status to marry the daughter of the castle warden. Plans for the marriage are jeopardized, however, when an unknown woman appears at the castle, claiming she is unable to remember who she is. She simply calls herself Fusa. The enamored Samurai marries her instead, but lives in constant fear that she will recover her memory and be forced to leave him.

Originally "Fusa" was aired on Fuji TV and then at the Venice and Rotterdam film festivals in 1993, but never released theatrically. After director Kon Ichikawa passed away February, 2008, "Fusa" was released theatrically in Japan on November 8, 2008.
