This film is pretty tough to find—most prints have either been lost or are in private collections. It hasn't seen much in the way of restoration, which adds to its allure but makes it a challenge for serious collectors. Interest seems to be growing, particularly among those keen on pre-war Japanese cinema, as the drama offers a unique snapshot of the time and place. Keep an eye out for any screenings or possible home media releases; it’s definitely on the radar for those with a keen interest in the era.
