Takayama Ukon è un grande samurai del XVI secolo che si è convertito al cristianesimo attraverso la predicazione di San Francesco Saverio. Nel gennaio scorso, Papa Francesco ha firmato il decreto che riconosce il martirio di Tkayama Ukon, che sarà dunque proclamato Beato. Il suo percorso interiore tra la spada e la croce viene raccontato dal film con un linguaggio immediato e rivolto al pubblico giovanile.
