The story opens on Oharu as an old woman in a temple flashing back through the events of her life. It begins with her love affair with a page, Katsunosuke (Toshirō Mifune), the result of which (due to their class difference) is his execution and her family's banishment. Oharu attempts suicide but fails and is sold to be the mistress of Lord Matsudaira with the hope she will bear him a son. She does, but then is sent home with minimal compensation to the dismay of her father, who has worked up quite a debt in the meantime. He sends her to be a courtesan, but there, too, she fails and is again sent home. She goes to serve the family of a woman who must hide the fact that she is bald from her husband. The woman becomes jealous of Oharu and makes her chop off her hair, but Oharu retaliates, revealing the woman's secret. She again must leave—this time she marries a fan maker who is killed shortly after during a robbery. She attempts to become a nun, but Oharu is thrown out after being caught naked with a man seeking reimbursement for an unauthorized gift (it is made clear this is rape by Oharu's claims and distraught demeanor). She is thrown out of the temple, becomes a prostitute, but fails even at that. In the end, she is recalled to the Lord's house in order to keep secret her activities and to be exiled within the compounds to keep her secrets locked away. While being scolded for the life she chose, she attempts to find her son, and in the process, ends up running away as she chooses the life of a beggar over the life in exile.

Dans une école d'art dramatique, au début du XX siècle, le metteur en scène Shimamura a pour objectif d'élargir son répertoire au théâtre étranger contemporain et de ne plus se cantonner aux seules représentations kabuki. À cette fin, il est autorisé à monter Maison de poupée d'Henrik Ibsen. Mais il recherche une actrice locale digne d'interpréter le rôle principal de Nora. La rencontre avec la comédienne Sumako Matsui est décisive. Celle-ci, deux fois malheureuse en amour et proche d'un état suicidaire, veut s'émanciper pleinement, à la fois comme femme et comme actrice. La pièce d'Ibsen entre donc en résonance avec sa vie et son idéal. De son côté, Shimamura, en homme de son temps, estime, par exemple, que sa fille doit choisir par elle-même l'amour et l'homme qui lui conviennent. Il refuse d'émettre le moindre avis à ce sujet, ni même de rencontrer l'éventuel mari. Sur le plan strictement professionnel, Sumako et Shimamura sont, tous deux, des perfectionnistes. L'osmose est donc totale : elle aboutira à une vie de couple et à la fondation d'un Théâtre d'Art moderne.
