Plot summary

Set in feudal Japan, the "daimyo" Kagetora (Enoki) must protect his lands and his people from the ambitions of the warlord Takeda (Tsugawa).

Kagetora is also known as Uesugi Kenshin. In the film, Kagetora must defend his province of Echigo against Takeda Shingen. The famous battles include the Battle of Kawanakajima.

The film is full of large scale dramatic battle scenes filmed in Canada. Many of the regular soldiers wear masks that were historically for mounted samurai or leaders. This is because many extras were Canadian.
