Early 20th century, Meiji era, Japan. A young woman, Aoi Ichi, is sold to a prestigious brothel in Kumamoto to pay off a family debt. It seems her life is over before it has truly begun, for there is no way back from the pleasure district. However, even in such a place, full of human vices and base needs, Ichi finds something greater: compassion, sincerity, and faith in herself and others.

Based on true historical events from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, "Woman of Pleasure" is a testimony to a true spiritual revolution, led by tender and fragile women striving to break free from the clutches of patriarchy and the brutal system of sexual exploitation.
