Plot:	An early film from Japanese master director Yasujiro Ozu.
Overview:	The only surviving print lacks the first and last reels, set eight years before and three years after the main story. So it now focuses on the troubled relationship between two boys who discover they are only step-brothers. After her husband dies of a heart attack, widowed Chieko selflessly devotes herself to the raising of son and stepson Sadao. Her unconscious refusal to deal with Sadao as strictly as her own son causes resentment in both. When, as a college student, Sadao finally uncovers the secret of his parentage, he tries to quit the family and live on his own. The prologue, in which the father dies at the office, showed their former happy domestic life and the epilogue is the reconciliation with mother after the traumatic central section.
