## Synopsis

Wearing a mask to hide his identity, a deadly swordsman challenges a tyrant from  the Ruling Council of the Tokugawa Shogunate. Both TANUMA Okitsugu of the  ‘Roju’ (Ruling Council) and his son Okitomo, the Magistrate in charge of the gold  mint, have been abusing their political power to steal gold by casting coins with  only half the amount of precious metal and keeping the rest for themselves.  TAKAHASHI Hideki stars as a popular Ukiyoe artist, KANO Hidemaro, who dons a  purple hood to hide his real identity, has learned of their plot and fights to stop  them. The Purple Hooded Avenger is a well-known and popular series in Japan,  and he stands up against injustice from the powerful ‘Elder’ TANUMA of the ‘Roju’.  The story told here occurred during the 'Tenmei' Era (1781-1789). An extraordinary  movie, a must see!
