In 16th-century Japan, Shingen, a powerful warlord, became as legendary as the motto on his war banners: "Swift as the wind, silent as a forest, fierce as fire, silent as a mountain." As he succumbed to his wounds in battle dies, Shingen orders his clan to find a doppelganger to replace him in order to keep his death a secret so that his enemies will not attack. The man chosen for this role is called Kagemusha (Shadow Warrior). However, this Kagemusha turns out to be the petty criminal, who must somehow transform himself into a great leader and win the loyalty of 25,000 samurai warriors.
