A young woman (Setsuko Hara) who lives happily with her widowed father (Chisu Ryu) will not consider marriage,k preferring her state of comfortable dependence to the responsibilities of childbearing and household duties. The father, afraid that she will live a lonely and barren life, leads her to believe that he intends to remarry in order to free her. Through a dispassionate observation of the characters' environment and emotions, Yasujiro Ozu creates an aesthetic of simplicity and restraint.
