SUMMARY: "Based on real events that occurred in the<br />
feudal <strong>Japan</strong> of 1701, the honour code of the samurai is<br />
slowly becoming irrelevant as provincial laws, nepotism<br />
and bureaucracy replace tradition and ritual. After a<br />
dispute at court ends with the samurai master Lord Asana<br />
sentenced to perform hara-kiri (or, ritual suicide), his<br />
samurai proteges are reduced to the state of ronin<br />
(masterless samurai). But the ronin have devised a plot to<br />
avenge their master's honour: a final, noble act of<br />
revenge"--Container.<br />
