No Regrets for Our Youth

Yukie (Setsuko Hara) is a young woman whose strength and determination unfold through her marriages to both her husband (Susumu Fujita) and the socialist cause.

Kurosawa's first film after WWII is a tale of the silence of Old Japan and the unrest of a generation who survived the horrors of war to fight for the New Japan.
