During the Edo period in Japan, Yoshiwara, a place full of geishas, was bustling with people. Merchants and wealthy people spent money just to win a beautiful woman's smile. The eight-year-old girl came to Yoshiwara Gyokuya and was named Kiyoha. At that time, the top oiran Joan (played by Miho Kanno) was responsible for training this unruly little girl. In order to leave this place of fireworks as soon as possible, Kiyoha concentrated on training, hoping to become Yoshiwara oiran as soon as possible and get out of it. Ten years later, Kiyoha (played by Anna Tsuchiya) became Yoshiwara's top oiran with both beauty and art, and changed her name to Higurashi. However, she still had a stubborn character at this time, and she treated the rich but arrogant guests with disdain. The samurai Kuranosuke (played by Kippei Shiina) fell in love with Higurashi and wanted to marry her, but Higurashi put forward an almost impossible condition to him... This film is adapted from the manga of the same name by Moyoko Anno.
