When an injustice costs his master his life and estate, loyal retainer Ōishi (Kinnosuke Yorozuya) vows revenge. Because the target of his vengeance is protected by the ruling shōgunate, any retaliation would be seen as an act of treason. Ōishi assembles the remaining ranks of the now-masterless samurai and the 47 of them pledge a blood oath to avenge their slain lord. Tensions rise among the ranks of the ronin eager to launch the mission, as Ōishi bides his time awaiting the right time to strike. Enemy spies and assassins track Ōishi, who has seemingly fallen into vice; has he lost his sense of honour, or is it just a part of his plan? The Fall of Ako Castle offers a moving tale of loyalty, betrayal, and sacrifice where classical history explodes into brutal samurai carnage. Kinji Fukasaku brings together an ensemble cast, including two icons of Japanese cinema - Toshiro Mifune and Sonny Chiba - for this samurai epic, a retelling of the classic story of the 47 ronin.
