One of Mikio Naruse’s supreme achievements, this transcendent melodrama weaves a heartrending story of an extended family tragedy growing out of the Second World War.A young widow attempts to carry on after her husband was killed in the war and her family grocery all but wiped out in a bombing raid. She keeps the business going, only to find herself dealing with the greedy interference of her sisters-in-law and the unwanted attention of her brother-in-law, who all the while pines for her.
