Une femme revient dans son village natal après être partie dans une grande ville pour gagner sa vie. Elle porte des vêtements modernes et est fière d'elle. Les villageois la regardent avec des sentiments divers. Certains sont admiratifs, d'autres jaloux, d'autres choqués par son éloignement des manières traditionnelles, notamment quand ils apprennent qu'elle est stripteaseuse. Elle s'efforce de garder la tête haute malgré tout, et de rire et de danser, plutôt que de s'attrister du mauvais accueil de certains. C'est une histoire très simple, et il n'y a pas vraiment d'intrigue.

Nine young samurai, including his nephew, believe that the lord chamberlain, Mutsuta, is corrupt after he tore up their petition against organised crime and said maybe he himself was behind the crimes. One of them tells the superintendent of this and he agrees to intervene. As the nine meet secretly at a shrine and discuss their problem, a ronin (Mifune) emerges from another room where he has been resting. The ronin has overheard their plans, and suggests that the superintendent is in fact the real corrupt official. While at first the samurai are insulted by his claims, they soon find themselves surrounded by the superintendent's men, proving that he was correct. The ronin hits a few of the attackers and bluffs their leader into leaving, taking only a small amount of money in reward to buy food because he is starving; however, after realizing that Mutsuta and his family must now be in danger, he decides to help the samurai bring down the corrupt officials.

The story is about the interactions between Kiyoko (Hideko Takamine) and her bank clerk bachelor confidant Kenkichi (Toshiro Mifune). Kiyoko, along with her husband Shinji (Keiju Kobayashi), wants to open a coffee shop and so goes to Kenkichi to ask for a loan. Family financial and emotion troubles mount within her household, and Kiyoko falls for the handsome Kenkichi. Their entire relationship is a series of beginnings and endings with the middles cut out.
