A hotheaded youth in 1880s Meiji Japan apprentices to judo master Shōgorō Yano, trading brute jujutsu bravado for discipline and humility. As Sanshirō matures, he proves judo’s spirit against old-guard challengers—including a deadly duel—while falling for his vanquished opponent’s daughter. Based on the novel by Tsuneo Tomita, son of Tomita Tsunejirō, the earliest disciple of judo.

I confess: I was a bit sleepy while watching this, but I don't really understand what was going on. Or more accurately, I understood *what* was happening, but not *why*. It felt to me the characters had no motivation for their actions, and just did whatever on a whim.
