Jaded, wandering samurai Sanjuro Tsubaki (Toshiro Mifune) encounters a clan of samurai who have been betrayed by the local superintendent. They had intended to present a formal accusation of corruption within their clan but would have been crushed by the superintendent's men had Sanjuro not arrived and defended them. Sanjuro finds himself embroiled in a plot to kidnap the local chamberlain and facilitate a power grab by the superintendent, but jaded as he is Sanjuro feels he must also object to his rebellious samurai allies and their empty posturing.
