Hi no Youjin

In eighteenth-century Edo, Owaka and Matsukichi share feelings rooted in childhood, but their families send them toward different futures. Matsukichi becomes a firefighter against his family’s wishes, while Owaka prepares for a marriage that does not fulfill her own hopes.

As the wedding approaches, suppressed emotions intensify and a fire turns the neighborhood into a catastrophe. Smoke and flames bring their paths together again under circumstances that leave little time for hesitation.
