Tokyo Chorus
Shinji Okajima
Mr. Omura, a teacher, leads a group of male students in an outdoor drill. One slight, comic young man, Shinji Okajima, has no shirt under his jacket; he scratches at fleas and makes faces behind Omura's back. Jump ahead several years, Shinji is married with three children. He sells insurance, and on the company's annual bonus day, he protests when an older worker is fired. Shinji loses his own job as a result, and he and his wife must find ways to cope. Lassitude, pride, the demands and needs of young children, and relationships from bygone school days all play a part in the outcome of their struggle.

La bella y la barba
Kiichi Okajima
La Señora y la Barba comienza como una comedia bulliciosa, vulgar, que poco a poco se adentra en la melancolía y el patetismo.

La barba se la afeita cuando “la bella" - una mecanógrafo que ha salvado de un atraco- le convence de que es un obstáculo para encontrar un trabajo. Incluso bien afeitado, él no puede huir de los problemas: la nueva mujer de su vida resulta ser un ladrón de joyas. La Señora y la Barba es fascinante por su "audacia sexual" y por su crítica total a la occidentalización y el nacionalismo japonés estrecho de miras-
