Skip it tonight—this lost Ukrainian historical epic is a fascinating piece of cinema history, but watching a film that may not even exist in complete form isn't the move for casual viewing. Hunt it down if you're a film archivist or history obsessive, but grab something you can actually see instead.

Down-on-his-luck veteran Tsugumo Hanshirō enters the courtyard of the prosperous House of Iyi. Unemployed, and with no family, he hopes to find a place to commit seppuku—and a worthy second to deliver the coup de grâce in his suicide ritual. The senior counselor for the Iyi clan questions the ronin’s resolve and integrity, suspecting Hanshirō of seeking charity rather than an honorable end. What follows is a pair of interlocking stories which lay bare the difference between honor and respect, and promises to examine the legendary foundations of the Samurai code.
