Product Description

In 16th Century Japan a poor village is raided every of year by a group bandits until, driven to the brink of starvation, the villagers decide to hire professional warriors to protect them. With only three meagre meals a day to offer as payment, their quest seems an impossible one. A simple plot, flawlessly executed - Seven Samurai combines comedy, pathos, memorable characters, gripping tension and some of the most memorable action scenes ever filmed into an enthralling cinematic experience.

Content Description

時は戦国時代。山間の農村に住む農民達は不作に喘いでいた。その上、付近の野武士達が野盗化し、収穫の時期になるとわずかな食料を狙って襲ってくるのだった。ついに追いつめられた村人達は、侍を雇って戦うことを決意する。貧しい彼らが与えられる報酬は「飯を腹一杯」。庄屋を襲った盗人を退治した腕自慢の勘兵衛は、村人達に懇願され侍探しを始める。そして勘兵衛を含めて五郎衛、平八、勝四郎、七郎次、久蔵、菊千代の七人の侍が揃った。勘兵衛たちは村に柵を巡らせ、農民達に訓練を施して野盗たちの襲撃を待ち構える…。
