HANJIRO THE REAL SAMURAI (2010)

Hanjiro - Based on the true story of Samurai Nakamura Hanjiro during the tumultuous Meiji-era in Japan, it depicts Hanjiro’s rise from a low ranking Samurai to one of Saigo Takamori’s most trusted men due to his generosity and excellent swordsmanship.

Through unrivaled swordsmanship and unwavering personality, Hanjiro becomes a loyal servant of revolutionary Saigo Takamori. Hanjiro quickly rises through the ranks in the newly formed Imperial Army as Saigo becomes a charismatic general. When government officials frame his friend Saigo, Hanjiro learns how corrupt the government really is.

Outraged by this and the loss of honor and morality among the Samurai, Hanjiro chooses to stand with his friend and fight against the corrupt Meiji-era government though their chance of victory is slim. Magnificent and poignant, this tale forces viewers to question the meaning of loyalty and honor.

Lead actor Enoki Takaaki, born in Kagoshima and trained in traditional martial arts, puts together a real life depiction of his local hero, after 13 years of planning.
