이차대전 직후 일본이 재건에 몰두하던 시대. 태풍이 몰아쳐 홋카이도와 혼슈를 연결하는 연락선이 침몰하고 훗카이도 어느 작은 마을에는 화재가 발생해 마을 전체가 타버린다. 이는 어느 전과자가 자신의 범행을 숨기기 위해 불을 질러 일어난 것이었다. 이 전과자 이누카이는 도피 중 어느 사창가에 들러 마음씨 좋은 작부 야에의 환대를 받자 그녀에게 큰 액수의 돈을 건네주고 사라진다. 거장 우치다 도무의 후기 대표작으로, 단순한 범죄영화를 넘어서서 전후일본의 경제성장에 대한 비판적인 안목이 잘 살아난 걸작이다. 주연을 맡은 미쿠니 렌타로와 히다리 사치코도 최고의 연기를 선보이고 있다.

Based on a 1956 television feature on Japan’s national network, NHK, this is one of Uchida’s rarest films. A socially conscious drama with a contemporary backdrop, Dotanba focuses on the attempts to rescue a group of trapped miners. The title is a figure of speech — (essentially “last minute” or “eleventh hour”) — that refers to a situation of peril. The film boasts a script co-written by Uchida and Akira Kurosawa’s frequent screenwriter, Shinobu Hashimoto, and stars Kurosawa’s frequent star Takashi Shimura.
