Based on the homonymous manga by Moyoco Anno and with a script by Yuki Tanada, the story takes place in 18th century Edo, in the red-light district of Yoshiwara. In that district, the most prestigious category of courtesans is called “Oiran”, and a whole protocol is established just for someone to meet them. The film revolves around Kiyoha, who is sold in one of the most renowned “houses” of the area. The girl stands apart from the beginning due to her bad manners, her disregard for rules and her overwhelming ambition. The script follows her ascent from an ugly kid to the most famous Oiran of Yoshiwara.
