Klíčové slovo Muromachi Period

Inu-oh, který se narodil do vážené rodiny, je postižen dávnou kletbou, kvůli níž se ocitl na okraji společnosti. Když se setká se slepým hudebníkem Tomonou, mladým knězem biwa, kterého pronásleduje jeho minulost, objeví v sobě Inu-oh podmanivou schopnost tance. Dvojice se rychle stane obchodními partnery a nerozlučnými přáteli, protože na jejich elektrizující koncerty, které jsou větší než život, se hrnou davy lidí. Když však vládnoucí hrozí, že skupinu rozpustí, musí Inu-oh a Tomona tančit a zpívat, aby odhalili pravdu o svém tvůrčím nadání.
