Description

[Machine Translation] The monotonous life of a lover and his wife is changed by a baby that fell from the sky! This masterpiece, inspired by the "Obake Chimneys" that once existed in Kitasenju, Tokyo, and were familiar to many, depicts the emotions of ordinary people devastated by the war. This masterpiece by the famous duo of Heinosuke Gosho and Kinuyo Tanaka, which also won the International Peace Prize at the Berlin International Film Festival, has been reissued in HD remastering! The 18th release under the "Shin-Toho Kinema Nostalgia" label! The film also features great performances by Kinuyo Tanaka, Hideko Takamine, Ken Uehara, Hiroshi Akutagawa, and others. Directed by Heinosuke Gosho from "Innocent People" by Rinzo Shiina. --The ghost chimneys of Kitasenju, Tokyo, are familiar to people who live in the area. Depending on where you look, it looks like one, two, three, or even four chimneys. Takakichi Ogata, an ordinary middle-aged man who works for a Tabi wholesaler, is troubled only by the noise from a radio shop and the prayer drums on either side of him. His wife, Hiroko, who has a foxy air about her, has been saving coins by changing money at a bicycle race without her husband's knowledge. Kenzo, a lodger on the second floor, is a good-natured man who works for the tax office. He has taken a liking to Senko, an announcer at a street broadcasting station who lives in the next room, but he is unable to grasp her cynical nature. Then one day, a terrible incident breaks out.
