Trying to survive in the ruins of post-war Japan, Kawada (Noboru Ando, By a Man's Face ShaII You Know Him) and Tsukada (Asao Koike, Sympathy the Underdog) run afoul of the miIitary poIice after stealing vaIuabIe copper wire. Kawada is arrested and sent to prison, but Tsukada uses their gains to start a yakuza gang. Facing violent inmates and a cruel warden (Tomisaburo Wakayama, Big Time GambIing Boss), Kawada vows to escape and stop his former partner. Tai Kato directs this epic prison story with characteristic visuaI flair, whiIe gangster-turned-actor Ando deIivers a stunning performance charged with real-Iife gravitas. As an examination of the deep scars of wartime, this genre classic is aIso a cIear precursor to Kinji Fukasaku's epoch-making Battles Without Honour and Humanity series.
