When she is sold to Gion, the geisha district in Kyoto, at the age of nine, she loses not only her parents but also her sister.

During her training, Chiyo learns the art of being a geisha - dancing, singing, wearing kimonos, intricate makeup and hairstyle, and also seducing men. At the same time, she has to deal with the jealous older geisha, Hatsumomo, who hates her and leads a ruthless battle against her for the favor of clients. Chiyo has to face many obstacles and intrigues, but eventually becomes the famous geisha Sayuri.
Although geishas are not allowed to feel true love, Sayuri falls in love with one man and is willing to give up everything for him, even if it means betraying her duties and position.
