The year is 1860 and the great Tokugawa Shougunate is on shaky ground. Masterless samurai Niiro, desperate to regain his fallen staus, joins the Mito clan in a plot to assassinate an official to the shogun. Based on true events, SAMURAI ASSASSIN features a powerful performance from Toshiro Mifune ( SEVEN SAMURAI, YOJIMBO) and is widely regarded as one of the finest samurai films ever made.
