Kwaidan
Ein Samurai, der seine Frau verlässt, um ein Leben in Wohlstand zu führen, zwei Holzfäller, die in einem Schneesturm stecken bleiben, ein blinder Bediensteter, der sein musikalisches Talent den Falschen zur Verfügung stellt und ein hochrangiger Soldat, der eigentlich nur einen Tee trinken wollte - sie alle machen Erfahrungen mit der Welt des Übernatürlichen und der Geister...
