Sunday, 8th June, 2008 at 3:00 PM

Unanimously accepted as the best adaptation of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth', this film follows Lords Washizu and Miki, who are lost in a dense Cobweb Forest after a victory. Here they meet a mysterious old woman, who predicts great things for Washizu and greater things for Miki's descendants. Out of the forest, both are immediately promoted by the Emperor. Washizu, meanwhile, encouraged by his ambitious wife, plots to make more of the prophecy come true, even if it means killing the Emperor he serves.
