Humanity and Paper Balloons

In the film, Shinzo, a hairdresser living in a poor tenement, attracts the attention of the yakuza after opening a gambling den on his own. Struggling for money, Shinzo tries to pawn his hairdressing tools but is rejected by the pawnshop. Meanwhile, Matabe, a ronin living in the same tenement as Shinzo, unsuccessfully seeks employment from the samurai Mori, whom his father once served. One day, Shinzo accidentally kidnaps the daughter of the pawnbroker, bringing her back to the tenement, leading to unforeseen consequences.
