2h 53m 1968 Japan

Tokyo engineer Kariya travels to a remote tropical island to drill a well that will supply water for a sugar mill. Upon arrival, he encounters the Futori clan, whose traditional lifestyle contrasts sharply with his modern aspirations. As Kariya navigates the complexities of the island's culture and the clan's deep-rooted beliefs, he finds himself embroiled in conflicts that challenge his values and ambitions. The journey becomes a profound exploration of desire, power, and the clash between progress and tradition in a world where the past holds significant sway.
