Initiated during the wartime period in Japan, Akira Kurosawa's early film is inspired by a legendary event from the 12th century, in which Lord Yoshitsune and his samurai retainers masqueraded as monks to traverse a dangerous enemy checkpoint. This story, long dramatized in Noh and Kabuki theater, becomes one of the director's most captivating early creations.
