The Yoshiwara pleasure quarter, where there is everything a man and a woman could wish. Amidst its numberless women of the night, and the highest-ranked courtesans, known as oiran, one in this teeming quarter is destined to become a legend. She is the dynamic Kiyoha, who snaps ‘Get cute with me, will you?’ and flies at a prostitute who has displeased her. In time she will become the oiran known as ‘Higurashi’. At cherry-blossom time, the procuress O-Ran, a former oiran, brings a girl of only eight through the Great Gate of Yoshiwara to an establishment called the Tamagikuya, where the child is given the name ‘Kiyoha’. While the cherry blossoms are in full bloom outside the quarter, there is not one to be found inside it. Attempting to escape, Kiyoha struggles with the Head Clerk, Seiji, who says of a barren cherry tree within the quarter, ‘The day it flowers, I’ll take you out of here.’ ‘No thanks. I’ll take myself out,’ she retorts.

A young girl is sold into a red-light district brothel and tries to adapt to life and make her own way as an No.1 oiran (courtesan).
