What did you think of this film?
The man who would later become a national treasure was born into a family of chivalrous men.
Kikuo, who has an otherworldly beauty, loses his father in a conflict and is taken in by Hanai Hanjiro, the head of a prestigious Kamigata Kabuki family, and plunges into the world of Kabuki. There, he meets Shunsuke, the heir to a wealthy family who is Hanjiro’s biological son and has a promising future from birth. The two are descended from completely opposite bloodlines and have different backgrounds and talents. As rivals, they strive to improve each other and devote their youth to their art, but their many encounters and partings throw the gears of fate into disarray…
The forbidden world of Kabuki that no one has ever seen before. Bloodline and talent, joy and despair, trust and betrayal. Tears of joy and enthusiasm await at the end of a life of struggle and hardship.
Why does he cling to the world of art, live through turbulent times, and rise to become the only “national treasure” in the world? The spectacular climax will shake the soul of everyone who watches.
