During the Warring States period, in a small mountain village near Lake Biwa, there lived Genjiro (played by Masayuki Moriyama), his wife Miyagi (played by Kiyoshi Tanaka), his brother-in-law Fujibei (played by Ei Ozawa), and his sister Ahama (played by Hikaru Mito).

Three years after the completion of "Let's Go Happily", the Japanese craze for gangster romance films has not waned. When Ozu returns to this genre, his mindset and skills are different from before. The characters' emotions have become more complex and tragic, and the arrangement of every scene and object in the pictures is full of ingenuity. Continuing the characters from the previous work, it tells the story of the love and hatred between a gangster boss and two women, one good and one bad.
