Synopsis:
Two slaves free themselves from a slave ship; one a Japanese man, the other an African American.
After escaping, they find themselves on the shore of Edo-era Japan, a society with a strong caste system, isolated from the world. How will the Japanese people perceive this giant black man, and how will they survive?
But first things first: how will they get these shackles off their feet?
