In Kyushu, after the war in 1947, Kogure Ryoko (Matsuyuki Yasuko) works hard at a drinking hall for American troops. Her dream is to go to Tokyo and become a big actress. The turning point in her life comes when she meets Iimura Kyozo (Sakaguchi Kenji) at the drinking hall. Ryoko is attracted to the gentlemanly Iimura and the two of them enter into a relationship.
