Plot: Stage sword-fighting and fencing instructor and choreographer, or 'tateshi', Ichikawa Danpei was a man so focused on his art and job at hand that he fails to notice how the times are passing him by and the moving tastes of the audiences, which are calling for more realism, are contributing to less demand for his skills. This is the story of changing times.
