In order to make him a spy for the government, master swordsman Sakakibara
Kazue is wrongfully ordered to commit ritual suicide for overlooking the
smuggling of illegal goods.
Before his 'Seppuku' can be performed, he is ordered
to go undercover with a team of other 'dead' prisoners on a mission to find and
destroy a cannon factory being used by the Owari and Takamatsu Clans as they try
to overthrow the Shogun.
One of the great early samurai film stars Amachi
Shigeru gives an outstanding performance as the government agent forced to find
and destroy the hidden factory. As his 'death' has been made public it is of the
utmost importance that nobody recognizes him in this dangerous mission.
