Set during the Edo Period, a young man from a noble family meets a young woman under a special tree called "Raiou" (the tree was struck by lightning at one time with the broken part eventually sprouting out cherry blossoms).

Reviews
Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
