NAGASAKI, 1628

Thank you. You saved my life.

My house is very near.

It's a shabby place, but you can rest there.

How old are you? .Twelve.

You have nice eyes.

My friends call me 'the owl'.

They are wrong.

A girl with good eyes has a good heart.

Your meal is ready.

I am afraid it isn't much.

No. It is very good.

How Is your am?

I'm fine now.

The Tokugawa shogunate, to maintain its feudal system...

.Inflicted severe punishments on criminals.

Above all, the oppression of Christians was very severe.

Its tortures and punishments were the cruellest in history.

Next, .Reject Christianity.

I'm bored. I'm tired of watching branding.

Those bastards are not afraid of being branded.

They will never reject Christianity. They despise us.

Kuroda, invent more cruel means of torture.

A horrible one that I can really enjoy. Understand?

Toyo! Toyo!

Wait a minute.

Don't be surprised, Mr Sasaki. It's me.

Yakichi. What are you doing here?

Looking for Christians.

Is this a Christian family?

Did you come to know them?

Not really.

Is there any evidence?

Yes. I may be an underling, but I have been a spy for 20 years.

Look at this cross. I found it.

I'm sure I can trap them in three days.

Kuroda, do you intend to fry this man?

Very interesting.

Build up that fire.

'Clear your mind and you'll find even fire cool'.

This is very interesting.

There are many other ways, my Lord.

This is cute.

He's in a bad mood.

Spare me, please.

Go ahead.

Everybody, enjoy the scene.

I don't like the way you look at me. Do you hate me?

We will remove your feet...

.80 you won't be able to walk.

Your blood is red, like mine.

You have the same white bones.

I like this. Let me do .

The sow smells good. Don't you think so, Yakichi?

Yes, my Lord.

It is noisy in here.

She is Sasaki Iori's woman.

What?

That's perfect.

Sasaki Lori is here.

I am glad to see you. Come closer.

You are very handsome.

I hear you are a good swordsman. You must be populair with women.

Not at all.

Don't be modest.

I need a strong young man like you.

I will assign you, Lori, to an important post suitable for you.

I .am very grateful.

I will assign you as my personal assistant.

You cannot leave me. No matter what happens. This is my command.

No.

I want you to resist more.

I will show you paradise on earth.

You will soon forget your god and cling to me like a bitch.

Your breasts are trembling.

Stop.

Stop .

Do you feel good? Do you feel nice?

Are you so ashamed you want to Kill yourself?

But your religion forbids you to kill yourself. Right?

You have never shown this part of your body to anyone.

You will now expose it to me.

This is paradise.

You were a virgin, as I expected.

I can prove it with this.

I'll take a bath now.

Listen, everybody.

From now on this woman will be my concubine. Treat her with respect.

She believes in an evil religion, but she will convert soon.

She will now tell us...

...her fellow Christians' addresses.

Won't you tell us, Toyo?

How stubborn she is.

But I am sure she will soon speak up.

Bring her in, Yakichi.

Mitsu.

She's a cute girl.

Lori, torture her.

Why are you hesitating? Go on.

Toyo, my sister.

Mitsu.

Use this. This is & whip the Spanish King gave us.

You coward.

Confess.

You have hateful eyes.

You are as stubborn as your sister.

Yakichi.

Stop it. Please stop.

Sister, don't cry. I am all right,

I will tell everything. Please spare my sister.

I see. Tell us all you know then.

Take the girl away.

You are a fool, Toyo. You are a coward.

Mitsu. ..Sister.

Mitsu.

Damn whore.

No.

You scum.

I like you.

Toyo. I really like you.

Listen.

You must have known this woman. She was one of your fellow members.

Tell him clearly.

They shall be burned to death...

.because you betrayed them.

You need not say anything.

God will surely redeem all of you as well

Toyo. Look at me.

We will be waiting for you in Heaven.

Don't lie.

Take your spear.

Toyo. I will show you something interesting. Please enjoy.

Drink.

Father ... mother.

Look carefully.

Watch how your parents die.

Spare them.

I will do anything.

Please don't kill my parents.

Go ahead, but don't kill them too quickly.

Do It slowly.

Lori. Try to do it.

Spare me, sire.

You coward.

I will show you how to use a spear.

Father.

Stop . Stop .

I will Kill you.

Behave yourself.

Toyo, you mustn't die.

Take care of Mitsu.

Search for Mitsu...

.and make her happy.

Build the fires.

Take care of Mitsu.

Father.

Don't die.

Lori, come here and clean every part of Toyo's body.

What are you doing?

Obey my orders.

Somebody. Bring me a knife.

Hurry up.

Hold him.

Are you making fun of me?

Are you laughing at me in your mind? Do you despise me?

Are you rebelling?

You shall no longer be a samurai.

Leave Nagasaki at once...

.and never appear before me again.

If 1 ever see you again, I will chop you head off.

Leave, you scum. Disappear from my house.

ONE YEAR LATER

Halt.

Toyo.

I did wrong. Spare me. I am sorry.

Toyo.

Hold me.

I 'am scared. Very scared.

Lori.

Please don't leave me. Hold me and stay with me.

No. No.

Shoot.

Move away, girl. Move.

Toyo, the magistrate's mistress, was accused of adultery.

She was executed by being torn apart by bulls.

Drink.

Lori.

Shall we start?

Her thighs will be wide open.

More wine.

We did it. She is tom.

As a reward for his numerous arrests of Christians...

.he was promoted to feudal lord...

...and he became the Minister of Religion.

FUKAGAWA, EDO 1821

What are you doing? Join us and dance.

All you do is eat. Why don't you join us?

I have never eaten food as delicious as this.

You have an accent. Are you from the west?

I am from Kawachi.

That is near Osaka. Perhaps you have heard of me?

Don't you know him?

No. I have never been anywhere except Kawachi.

You eat a lot. Do you like it?

Al have ever eaten are vegetables.

All right then. Eat as much as you like. You can order anything.

Give me some credit. You may think I am poor...

.but I am the son of a rich man in Osaka. I have a lot of money.

My father died eight years ago.

Ever since, my mother had to raise five children including me.

She had to work very hard and she became sick and bedridden.

My younger brothers and sisters were small.

There was no other way for me but to sell myself.

I see.

It is a really sad story.

Do you weep when you get drunk?

I 'am a member of a rich family.

I get sad when I hear such miserable stories.

Damn.

I overslept.

Excuse me.

Mister, mister...

Let me sleep longer.

Please, you must pay us. Mister.

You enjoyed last night.

How much is it?

14 ryo for drinks, food and girls.

That is outrageous.

What's the matter?

Damn it. You are crazy. You can't charge that much.

Mister, don't you have ... ...What?

It's almost gone.

You bastard.

This is all I have. Treat me as you like.

I will work for you to pay my debt.

I will even clean the toilet.

All right then. Work.

Thank you. I am glad you are so reasonable.

Don't feel so at ease.

You will work for six months.

That is too long.

Couldn't he pay?

He will work here for six months.

Make that one year.

Have mercy. ..You idiot.

Don't let him run away. ..Yes, boss.

Wait a minute.

What are you doing?

You can't go out with that hair.

You're quite right.

I will work hard,

I don't have to worry about food and a place to sleep.

Hey, it's not hot enough.

It's me, Sato.

You surprised me. What are you doing here?

I have to work here in order to pay my debt.

But you said you were a rich man's son.

I know, but that was a lie.

My name is Sutezo. I am an orphan.

But you must know, I was much more illbred than you.

I was born in a jail in Osaka.

My mother was a criminal boss.

I doubted you.

You let me have a good time last night.

Let me touch you.

Do me this favour.

Let me have you once in a while.

I mean once in a long while. I beg you.

What's this?

This dirty whore stole my best customer.

Stop .

Don't change customers, girls. It will cause trouble.

I paid. I can do what I like.

You can't act that way.

Hold her down.

What will you do?

What are you doing?

No. You dirty dog. Go away.

Your body is covered with what dogs like.

Let it lick you.

Lick her, dog.

You are being punished for stealing my customer.

Serves you right.

She seems to enjoy it.

That's too much for her.

Sutezo, wash this.

I am sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry ...

It's badly stained.

This stinks.

A whore can't be pregnant. You will get an abortion. Come here.

Move aside. This is not a show.

Matron. Do your job. Empty her womb.

My baby. My baby.

It's been done. You better let her rest for a few days.

I can't allow that.

You will have to make her work tonight.

Sutezo, clean this place.

Do I have to do such work?

Is she okay? She is so pale. I think she's going to die.

What are you doing?

I'm running a business here.

She's very sick, boss. She can't work.

Let her rest. ..Shut up.

She has to work for the money. .But ...

Shut up. I'll lose the money I borrowed for her.

But she will die. ..I'll work.

I can still serve a customer.

Go out, you all. Get some customers.

Hurry up.

What a beastly man he is.

He plans to work them like animals.

Money comes first, en?

But this is awful.

I have to work. Patience first.

Move, bitch, move.

What's the matter?

Do you have a lung disease?

Tum around.

I paid...

.80 i'll get my money's worth.

Don'. You can' go in there.

Please stop. .Let go of me.

Wait. ..Tami,

I don't care.

Tami!

Tami.

Uno, my dearest.

Don't move.

Are you all right?

Were you planning to escape?

Listen.

You must see the punishment of those who try to escape.

Then you won't try the same thing.

Sutezo, come here.

Cut off his penis with this.

That's absurd. Stop joking.

We punish men who help the women escape.

It is the usual way.

Why me?

All 1 am supposed to do is cleaning and washing.

This is different from our agreement.

Obey our orders.

If you resist...

...you will get the same treatment.

Sutezo, cut it off with this.

Please don't think I'm cruel.

I have no choice.

Be patient. I'll just cut the part that sticks out.

It is all shrunk up.

What are you mumbling? Cut it off.

I can't cut it off.

It will soon be over.

What will we do next? Shall we Kill him?

This is enough. Get rid of him.

Boss. ..What?

The whore has been very still I now find that she is dead.

She's a nuisance to the end.

Sutezo, come.

Take care of the body. Carry it to the graveyard tomorrow.

Understand?

Sato, wake up.

Sato, I want you to run away with me. ..Run away?

What will happen if we stay here longer? This is hell.

I'd rather live here than in Kawachi.

You fool. You are a real fool.

There are many nice things I the world. You should have bigger dreams.

Stand up.

This is our only chance.

Let's become business partners. Then we will make money.

Are you sure? .Yes.

You'll wear beautiful clothes.

You can eat all you like and lead a pleasant life.

I will carry this.

Damn it. I will never come back.

I have to take a leak.

You cant do it now. You must be patient.

She has a ice figure. She is 2 good buy for you, madam.

She will get good customers soon.

This is a chance for you. Buy her.

How old are you?

Sixteen.

Sixteen?

Is that true? I think you are over twenty.

Believe me, she's only sixteen.

She looks older. She's rather big. But she is a virgin.

She is as fresh as a rose bud.

Pay 151 ryo for her. You will never lose your money.

She's worth 10 ryo.

That Is ridiculous, madam.

I told you. She is a virgin. Give me five ryo more.

No. If you don't like it, call on others.

I can't help it. You are a good business woman.

Is this girl really a virgin?

Sure. She's only sixteen.

Who are you? ..The privy man.

Are you new? .Yes.

I'm sorry.

Please, spare me.

I am disappointed, Sutezo. We lost the 10 ryo we earned.

That's your fault.

You are wrong. You lost that money.

Fool, you were clumsy.

Shut up. Don't call me a fool.

I don't like whores like you. You are a nuisance.

I am a whore. So what?

You are clinging to me. What does that make you?

I'm sick and tired of you.

I hate you. I don't want to stay with you. Go to hell

Hey sister. How's business?

Will you let me have you for 15 Mon?

I'm not a whore.

Where did you come from?

This is my territory.

You need my permission.

It's not what you think.

Don't make excuses.

I will punish you for this.

Sato! Sato!

Help. Sutezo!

Where is she?

She can't do anything alone.

Sutezo, help.

Let's go.

I am glad to see you again. You must have been anxious about me.

This Is no time for such talk.

Look. I have killed all the beggars.

Let's run away.

Where to?

I don't know. Let's run from here anyway.

Sutezo and Sato stayed in Edo avoiding the magistrate's search.

They committed numerous crimes, like theft swindling and extortion.

But it did not last.

Here they are.

Damn you two.

Don't stop, darling.

Fool. You mustn't forget yourself. ...But 1 almost came.

Damn it. This is business.

I couldn't help it. You were late.

Can't you hold yourself?

What a shameless woman you are.

Hey, you. She is my woman. What did you do to my wife ?

I see. So you two are running a scam.

What's so funny?

Adultery is a very grave crime.

I have the right to kill you. You do know that, don't you?

If you want to stay alive, give me 101 ryo. Then I will forgive you.

This is not a joke.

This knife is real. It is sharp.

You betrayed yourself.

Sutezo. I'm Denbei. A detective for the Magistrate at Kurofune...Cho.

We've been caught. ..Detective?

Forgive me, I was wrong.

Let's run.

You killed those beggars.

I did not. I know nothing about that.

Add weight.

Do you wish to confess?

I didn't do it.

Confess.

Lower him.

Raise him.

Confess.

Lower him.

Raise him.

Sutezo, I can't stand it anymore.

I have never experienced pain like this.

I did everything myself, officer.

She did nothing.

After several days of severe torture...

...the two confessed all their crimes.

They were put in a pillory.

There was a bamboo saw besides the convicts' necks.

Anyone was allowed to saw them with the bamboo saw.

But it was only a formality.

Actually, they were pillored for three days and then crucified.

What are you doing? .Give me some.

I am glad you are with me.

If 1 were alone, I would feel lonely. I wouldn't know what to do.

I feel the same way, Sato. Let's live together in the next world.

I 'am hungry.

Ah, it fell.

We can put that woman to good use for years and years to come.

If she were crucified... ..We would suffer a great loss.

Please take this.

You aren't pardoned.

Officer, release Sutezo as well

Don't leave me alone, Sato.

Sutezo, don't die, leaving me. Don't die.

Shut up.

Sutezo ...

Forgive me.

Come.

After all ... this is my fate.

I'm a bastard.

Nobody cares about me.

Nobody cares about me.

You are drunk. You must be happy.

I hope this is sharp.

It is dull. You can't use it.

A drunk can't use it.

You can't do this.

I am glad. Come in, come In.

I will caress you.

I am so pleased.

Sato, you surprise me.

Sato, the world is full of evil.

Keep your eyes open. Be cunning in order to live.

If you don't take care, you will fail.

Even if I am not around, you'll be clever enough to survive.

THE END
