Synopsis
A young Japanese girl is taken away from her poverty-stricken family to work in a geisha house in the 1930s. Despite being subjected to the cruelties of head geisha Hatsumomo, the girl grows to be Sayuri Nitta, a legendary geisha of great beauty and poise, who must contest not only the jealousies of her peers but the sweeping changes in Japanese society that will change her life forever.
