About Hiru nurasu hitozuma
Yoko was shocked to learn that her husband, Yasuyuki, had embezzled company funds and disappeared. The company's managing director, Kobayashi, took advantage of her vulnerability and sexually assaulted her. When Yoko's former lover, Ryosuke, found out, he stormed into the company, blackmailed Kobayashi, and extorted compensation from him. Yoko was kicked out of the company housing and started working at Ryosuke's bar, where Yasuyuki returned dejectedly. A strange life for the three of them began. However, the appearance of Hiromi, who had been having an affair with Yasuyuki, put the couple's relationship in crisis once again...
Directed by Toshiharu Suzuki, Hiru nurasu hitozuma leans on a strong ensemble — Shinobu Kawana, Yuka Ishihara, Shirō Shimomoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1989.
