Ugetsu is set in villages which line the shore of Lake Biwa in Ōmi Province in the late 16th century. It revolves around two peasant couples – Genjurō and Miyagi, Tōbei and Ohama – who are uprooted as Shibata Katsuie's army sweeps through their farming village, Nakanogō. Genjurō, a potter, takes his wares to nearby Ōmizo. He is accompanied by Tōbei, who dreams of becoming a samurai. A respected sage tells Miyagi to warn her husband about seeking profit in time of upheaval, and to prepare for a probable attack on the village. Genjurō arrives with his profits, but she asks him to stop. Genjurō nevertheless works long hours to finish his pottery. That night Nakanogō is attacked by soldiers, and the four main characters hide out in the woods., 2h28

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., 2h4

Sansho the Bailiff is a jidai-geki, or historical film, set in the Heian period of feudal Japan. A virtuous governor is banished by a feudal lord to a far-off province. His wife and children are sent to live with her brother. Several years later, the wife, Tamaki (Kinuyo Tanaka), and children, Zushiō and Anju, journey to his exiled land, but are tricked on the journey by a treacherous priestess. The mother is sold into prostitution in Sado and the children are sold by slave traders to a manorial estate in which slaves are brutalized, working under horrific conditions and branded when they try to escape. The estate, protected under the Minister of the Right, is administered by the eponymous Sanshō (Eitarō Shindō), a bailiff (or steward). Sanshō's son Tarō (Akitake Kōno), the second-in-charge, is a much more humane master, and he convinces the two they must survive in the manor before they can escape to find their father., 1h42

The story is set in Edo (now Tōkyō) in Japan.
The film starts with a parade of samurai and their concubines (oiran, distinguished by their high shoes) along an avenue of cherry trees. Koide, called Seinosuke by his woman (Kotaro Bando), an artist/samurai apprenticed to a Kanō master, leaves the parade and visits a print shop where he sees a woodcut print by Utamaro that boasts of ukiyo-e 's superiority to the official style. Enraged, he goes to a tea-house to find Tsutaya Jūzaburō, the owner of the print shop, to express his displeasure. Word is leaked to Utamaro to avoid the tea-shop, but instead he goes there directly to investigate. Koide then challenges him to a duel. Utamaro counter-challenges him with a different kind of duel––a painting contest.

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., 1h55

Il existe deux versions de ce film dans son montage court. Une française, muette, restaurée en 1999 par la Cinémathèque française à partir d'une copie-travail nitrate provenant de ses collections et une japonaise presque identique mais plus courte, il manque par exemple quelques scènes du mariage d'Orie et de Yukichi, mais commentée par un benshi. Les intertitres des deux versions comportent des différences. Le synopsis ci-dessous se base sur la version japonaise., 1h25
