Following the collapse of his clan, unemployed samurai Hanshiro Tsungumo (Tatsuya Nakadai) arrives at the manor of Lord Iyi, begging to commit ritual suicide on his property. Iyi's clansmen, believing the desperate ronin is merely angling for charity, try to force him to eviscerate himself-but they have underestimated his honor and his past. Winner fo the 1963 Cannes Film Festival's Special Jury Prize, Masaki Kobayashi's Harikiri is a scathing denouncement of feudal authority and hypocrisy.
