Abstract:

Chronicles the activities of four sisters who gather in Kyoto every year to view the cherry blossoms. An older, conservative sister tries to continue family traditions and pretensions to status, while the younger sisters discover the new freedoms becoming available to them. This battle over traditional ways is set in marked contrast to social and political changes going on in 1920s Japan. With Keiko Kishi, Yoshiko Sakuma, Sayuri Yoshinaga, Yuo Kotegawa, Juzo Itami.
