 Description
[Machine Translation] Naoto Fujiki's long-awaited first stage performance is now available on DVD! In addition to Katsuhisa Namase and Jun Hashimoto (Gekidan Shinkansen), the cast includes Hitoshi Katagiri (Rahmens), Noriko Nakagoshi, and Takako Kato. The film is a unique interpretation of the "Chushingura" storyline. You won't be able to take your eyes off this astonishing development! Life is nothing more than a fantasy, a fleeting delusion. Utsukushi or dream, light or shadow, cherry blossom or snow... Seek the truth and you will find the false. The stage is set in the Genroku era, a time when many flowers bloomed. The "Chushingura" is now revived between truth and falsehood. Everyone, we are going to take revenge! The time is the Genroku era. Sojuro Sawamura, a popular actor, begs Rihei Amanoya, a wealthy merchant, to marry his daughter Okaru, but he is not taken seriously at all. Oishi Kuranosuke tries to revive the Asano family even after his lord, Asano Takumi Asano, commits seppuku (ritual suicide) after an altercation with Kira Uenosuke, and is forced to resign from his fiefdom. He restrains the Ako ronin who are eager to attack and tells them that the time is not yet ripe, and encourages them to think about their own actions. Rihei Amanoya, on the other hand, had hoped that Oishi and the Ako Ronin would go into battle to avenge their lord's death, but when he learned that Oishi was unwilling to do so and that the Ako Ronin's reputation was also in tatters, he devised a plan. Amanoya tells Munejuro that Okaru is to be his wife, and in exchange, Munejuro is to perform a certain play.
