More Info:

Following the collapse of his clan, an unemployed samurai (RAN's 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 a new position, try to force him to eviscerate himself but they have underestimated his beliefs and his personal brand of honor. Winner of the 1963 Cannes Film Festival's Special Jury Prize, HARAKIRI, directed by Masaki Kobayashi (THE HUMAN CONDITION) is a fierce evocation of individual agency in the face of a corrupt and hypocritical system.
