Directed by Kōji Shima

· 1h 29m

Sanada Bunkichi, an alcoholic musician who had lost all motivation to live, was a man who seemed to be supported by the kind consideration of his disciple Shimaki Tetsuo. One day, the two of them joined five others who were going to the cabaret Kurofune in Shimoda and went on a journey together, where they discovered a pretty young woman named Keiko, called Lilu. When the group returned to Tokyo, Keiko, who wanted to be a singer, followed them and asked them to accompany her to Tokyo. Keiko settled on the second floor of Tetsuo's aunt's tobacco shop in Tokyo, but Sanada went on a journey as a musician with the female swordsman Oe Midori's troupe to take care of Keiko's immediate living expenses. During his absence, Keiko was able to make her debut as a radio singer thanks to the kindness of Tetsuo's friend. Hearing Keiko's voice coming from the radio, Sanada rejected Midori's advances and returned to Tokyo.
