Two brothers, Takamaru and Kikumaru, are living with their father, Hakuraku-Ou, until one day Hakuraku-Ou is killed by "Death's-Head" Ginnosuke, a villain skilled in the art of sorcery. Hakuraku-Ou had long been seeking a Tiger Seal which, together with the Dragon Seal in his possession, would reveal the location of a huge ancestral fortune. But on the very night that the Tiger Seal was found, it was stolen by Tomomitsu, Ginnosuke's chief. When the two brothers receive the Dragon Seal from their father just before his death they determine to go to Death's-Head Castle, in order to recover the Tiger Seal.

No Japão do século XI, um lenhador, um sacerdote e um camponês procuram refúgio de uma tempestade nas ruínas de pedra do Portão de Rashomon. O sacerdote conta detalhes de um julgamento que testemunhou, envolvendo o estupro de Masako e o assassinato do marido dela, Takehiro, um samurai. Em flashback é mostrado o julgamento do bandido Tajomaru, onde acontecem quatro testemunhos, inclusive de Takehiro através de um médium. Cada um é uma "verdade", que entra em conflito com as outras.
