  • Log in or register to post comments

In a charming neighborhood of Gion, the lives of two geisha sisters intertwine with the bustling world of Japanese culture and entertainment in the 1930s. The elder sister, with her innate grace and exceptional talent for the arts, has become one of the most sought-after geishas, but despite her achievements, she feels a profound emptiness in her heart. The younger sister, still in the process of becoming a geisha, struggles to gain recognition and the respect of her sister, while also dealing with her own yearnings for love and happiness.

As the story unfolds, the reality of their lives becomes more complicated. The elder sister finds herself entangled in a forbidden romance with a handsome client, but their relationship faces unexpected obstacles that force her to question her path and decisions. Meanwhile, the younger sister begins to attract the attention of a young artist, sparking jealousy and rivalries around her.

Both, trying to find their own place in a world where beauty and talent are often overshadowed by tradition and expectations, must confront family loyalty and the sacrifices that come with their life as geishas. Amid laughter and tears, love and heartbreak, the sisters' destinies intertwine in a powerful tale of self-discovery and the unbreakable bond that ties them together, challenging all the circumstances that life presents to them.
