Seppuku: The Sun Goes Down

2026 · 133 min Drama History

Kakizaki Yuji’s period film is not like the jidaigeki films we are used to. While it deals with themes of seppuku, duty, and loyalty to one’s masters and the shogun, we see very little in terms of action. Instead, the film focuses on the inner thoughts and struggles of the protagonist—who is ordered to perform a ritual suicide—his wife, and their entire household, all leading up to the final moment.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Seppuku: The Sun Goes Down is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A fresh 2026 release — still building its audience and reputation. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
