Kinoshita's ambitious and intensely moving film begins as a multi-generational epic about the military legacy of one Japanese family, before settling into an emotionally complex portrayal of parental love during wartime. As the parents of a boy shipped off to battle, Kinuyo Tanaka and Chishu Ryu locate profound depths of feeling that transcend ideology; all the more amazing, given the film was made in 1944, at a time of increasingly costly Japanese defeats in the Pacific War.

DVD-R is in Japanese with hard-encoded English subtitles. Approx. 87 mins.  See film samples for sound and video quality!
