Love and Faith
1978, Japanese. Directed by Kei Kumai.
Sen Rikyu is a ceremonial tea master who advises warlord Hideyoshi in sixteenth-century feudal Japan. His daughter, the beautiful Lady Ogin, has an unrequited love for Lord Ukon, who has angered Hideyoshi by becoming a Christian convert.

When the animalistic Hideyoshi is rejected by Ogin, he threatens her and her father with arrest and worse.
