The movie shows the desperate measures Kayo goes to in trying to secure them a living, how Shinnojo comes to terms with being an invalid, and how he manages to keep both love and honor. It has been described as a domestic drama, and it is, while still including one {{seppuku}} and one duel, as any self-respecting Samurai flick should.

Shinnojo considers quitting, but before he can do so, one rainy day a meal is indeed poisoned. He falls into a coma, and when he wakes up again, he is blind.
The movie shows the desperate measures Kayo goes to in trying to secure them a living, how Shinnojo comes to terms with being an invalid, and how he manages to keep both love and honor. It has been described as a domestic drama, and it is, while still including one {{seppuku}} and one duel, as any self-respecting Samurai flick should.
