An early silent (1935) that follows a young father and his two sons as they roam the industrial countryside looking for work and sustenance. Filmed mostly outdoors this still showed his trademark techniques and other than the enhanced expressions required by the lack of dialogue to convey emotions could have been made at any time in his career.
The film reflected his deep humanism and sympathy for the average person. He was unique in Japanese, and world cinema.
