At the start of the film, the main character, Iguchi Seibei, becomes a widower when his wife succumbs to tuberculosis.
His wife receives a grand funeral, more than what a lowest-ranking samurai such as Seibei could afford.
Seibei works in the grain warehouse, accounting for stores inventory for the samurai clan.
His samurai colleagues give him the condescending nickname " Tasogare Seibei " or " Twilight Seibei " — when evening approaches, Seibei rushes home to look after his senile elderly mother and two young daughters, Kayano and Ito, instead of bonding with his supervisor and other samurai colleagues over customary nights of dinner, geisha entertainment, and sake drinking.
Even though he is a samurai, Seibei continues to neglect his own appearance, failing to bathe and being shabbily dressed.
The well-being of his young daughters and medicine for his mother take priority over new clothes or covering the monthly bath fee.
