Japon, 1253. Le moine bouddhiste Renchō après des années d'étude arrive à la conclusion que l'enseignement le plus élevé du Bouddha Shayamuni (fondateur de toutes les formes de Bouhhisme) se trouve dans le Sūtra du Lotus. Renchō prend alors le nom de Nichiren et fonde sa propre école. Il se met à prêcher aux coins des rues à des hommes ordinaires : paysans, pêcheurs, artisans... en s'opposant violemment aux autres sectes bouddhistes en place. Cette opposition lui vaut bien des inimitiés. Il échappe plusieurs fois à la mort et est envoyé en exil à plusieurs reprises par les autorités.
