Genji, the son of the emperor, is the talk of the Kyoto nobility for his charm and good looks, yet he cannot stop himself from pursuing an unobtainable object of desire: his father's young and beautiful bride. Following the tragic consequences of his obsession, Genji wanders from one affair to another, always seeking some sort of completion to his life.
The Tale of Genji was directed by Gisaburō Sugii.
The Tale of Genji runs for 1h 50min, and was released in 1987.
