Tale of the Crane Princess
1993 · 162 min · Action, Drama, History
Oyamazumi Shrine still remains in Omi Island, surrounded by the Seto Sea. During the Warring States Era, a beautiful princess was born to the Ohori family, guardians of the shrine. Ohori was the chief priest of the shrine, and the princess was destined to be the leader of the Seto Sea pirates. Her name was Tsuru, and she was as brave as the ‘Dragon God’. While her birth was a gift from heaven, her life was filled with tragedy. This is an historical drama on a dynamic scale telling the story of Princess Tsuru, who rose to the post of admiral of the Mishima navy, as well as being a young woman watching her loved ones perish in the terrible wars of that time. Exciting battles and treacherous assassinations highlight this heartfelt tale of a young princess who must be as strong as a man in wartime, while still feeling the emotions of a woman.
