Brother and Sister

The story centers on Ino, who attempts to dictate her sister Mon's actions while grappling with her own choices. Mon's affair with a student, Obata, contrasts sharply with their sister San, who embodies the role of the 'good girl.' Their mother supports both daughters, while their father, Akaza, struggles to maintain authority within the household.

This film offers a glimpse into the social dynamics of the era and the struggles faced by women in a changing society. With a talented cast including Chieko Takehisa, Sadao Maruyama, and Yoshio Kosugi, the performances bring depth to the narrative.
