Where Now Are the Dreams of Youth?

In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Yasujiro Ozu made a string of comedies dealing with student life, the last of which, WHERE NOW ARE THE DREAMS OF YOUTH?, finds the director exploring increasingly complex themes of class and labor. After cheating his way through university alongside his three buddies, Horino (Ureo Egawa) inherits his late father’s company and sets his friends up with jobs. But can their once-carefree friendship survive the thorny realities of the working world? (Presented without score.)

Starring Ureo Egawa, Kinuyo Tanaka, Tatsuo Saito
