What they share
Theysit in Action / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Goyokin, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Ambitious is
You're Ryoma Sakamoto, a clan outcast in old Japan. The government hunts you, rival factions hate you. But you push to open Japan to the West. A director known for silent films makes a late-career return. The film leaves one pondering national identity.
