Harakiri (1962 film)
Okay kiddo, Harakiri is a movie from a long time ago, made in Japan about some Samurai warriors. You know what Samurai warriors are, right? They were very strong and brave soldiers who fought for their country.
In this movie, a Samurai warrior named Tsugumo who is very sad and desperate goes to a big house and asks for permission to do a honorable way to end his own life called "Harakiri" because he has nothing left and needs to keep his honor.
The house's leader doesn't believe that Tsugumo is really going to do it, he thinks he's just trying to get money or some kind of help. But Tsugumo insists, and the leader finally agrees to let him do the Harakiri in their courtyard.
A few things happen during the movie that explain why Tsugumo is so sad and why he decides to do the Harakiri. There are fights, secrets and a lot of drama.
But the main message of the movie is about honor, and how important it is to Japanese people. Tsugumo is willing to go through with the Harakiri to keep his honor, even though it means he will die. It's a very sad but also powerful story that helps us understand Japanese culture better.
