The main characters are concentrated in a few women, but the secondary characters are everywhere. Even without sufficient historical knowledge, the film is easy to understand. Although the plot is calm and without the intrigue and magnificence of previous court dramas, it reflects the fatefulness of an era's end through a certain emotional aspect of a woman.
