Yuko Kusunoki (楠侑子 Kusunoki Yūko, born 1933) is a Japanese actress. She appeared in more than twenty films since 1959.
This film follows the daily lives of a group of people barely scraping by in a slum on the outskirts of Tokyo. Yet as desperate as their circumstances are, each of them—the homeless father and son envisioning their dream house; the young woman abused by her uncle; the boy who imagines himself a trolley conductor—finds reasons to carry on.
An account of the final days of radical feminist Noe Ito and her lover Sakae Osugu.
The neglected common-law wife of a Japanese librarian is repeatedly harassed by a young man with a heart condition who seduces her with the prospect of a better life.
