Kiyohei at Dusk

In the late shogunate of the Kaisaka Domain, after his wife died of illness, a junior samurai Seibei (Hiroyuki Sanada) took care of his elderly mother with dementia and two young daughters on his own with a meager salary. Because he hurried home after work every day and never participated in social activities, he was nicknamed "Seibei at dusk" by his colleagues. After her childhood sweetheart Tomoe (Miyazawa Rie) divorced her husband and returned to her parents' home, she often went to Kiyobei's house to take care of his mother and daughter on his behalf, which attracted a lot of gossip. Seibei showed his superb sword skills and defeated Tomoe's ex-husband who was unreasonably entangled. However, when Tomoe's brother suggested that he marry Tomoe, he declined the offer because he did not want Tomoe to suffer. As a result, Tomoe disappeared from his family. After the feudal lord learned of Kiyohei's talents, he ordered him to execute a rebel samurai who was unable to defend himself against several people. Before leaving, Qingbei confessed his long-hidden love to Tomoe. Unexpectedly, the other party had already agreed to another marriage, so Qingbei sadly embarked on an uncertain road of life and death.
