Dauntaun Hirozu plot

Shikoku 1948. We follow a student at the strict Matsuyama boys' school and the two young women who complicate their lives. First of all, the hooker Sakiko Taniguchi, who rescue the boys from her yakuza pimp and help them hide from him. The second is Fusako Nakahara, a girl's student. The boys will be the last to graduate the old Japanese way before the education system is modeled on Western standards.
