Description:
Etsuko, a bar manager in post-war Yokosuka catering to American soldiers, recounts her life. A vibrant woman who avoided rural life after the war, she navigated atomic bombings, black markets, and prostitution targeting American troops, enduring the Korean War. Through newsreel footage, Shohei Imamura chronicles twenty-five years of Japanese postwar history as seen through the lens of a woman's experience.
