Fight, Zatoichi, Fight

Zatoichi, the blind swordsman and masseur, forms an unlikely bond with a young woman who is returning home with her baby. When gangsters mistake her for Zatoichi and kill her, Zatoichi resolves to escort the infant to his father. He secures the reluctant assistance of a young pickpocket, and together they set out to locate the child's father. But they do not anticipate the father's reaction to their arrival, nor the budding feelings they develop for the child.
