On the tenth anniversary of Japan's WWII surrender, a motley group of five, four men and one woman, gathers in the basement of a butcher shop to dig up a cache of morphine buried during the war. A grimly humorous tale of twisted relationships as one by one each of the group is eliminated. This early gangster film foreshadows similar tangled relationships in Shohei Imamura's later films. I do not have much more to say, but I liked the movie enough to write a comment even though I cannot fill up all of the 10 lines required by IMDb So I do not have much more to say, but I liked the movie enough to write a comment even though I cannot fill up all of the 10 lines required by IMDb
