A lost film telling a story of Jirokichi the Rat, a notorious thief

Kind of the Japanese equivalent of the gunfight at the O.K. Corral, this film is a fictionalized version of the gang battle in the later Edo period, which ended up in a direct duel between Kira no Nikichi (Ryunosuke Tsukigata) and Ano Toku (Dennosuke Ichikawa).

Rikiya is blinded in a fight after falling in love with a courtesan. Believing the blindness permanent and his opponent dead, he goes back home to his sister Okiku, who become a prostitute to pay for his treatment.

A samurai returns to his homeland after a three year absence and finds his fiance is now one of the prince's concubines.
