While still a young girl in Edo-era Japan, Kiyoha (Anna Tsuchiya) was brokered into a Tokyo brothel for training as a courtesan. While her handlers found that her beauty and willfulness made her a candidate to become a high-end oiran, she'd be challenged by the resentments of her colleagues and her desire to discover true love in spite of her circumstances. Mika Ninagawa's color-splashed take on the Moyoco Anno manga co-stars Hiroki Narimiya. 111 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English; featurette; image gallery; theatrical trailers.
