Propaganda movie made in 1944 by Akira Kurosawa tells the story of workers in an optical instruments factory during the War. Management has asked their workers to increase productivity over the next four months. Male workers are expected to perform double the norm; but female workers, led by fanatical Tsuru Watanabe, ask the bosses to increase the new quotas from 50% above the norm to 70%. It won't be easy to fulfill this request, however, as illness and personal issues compete for the women's attention.

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