A kind of sequel to I Was Born, But… It was made when the filming of I Was Born, But… was interrupted when one of the children in that film got hurt. Four boys are graduated from college. Three of them eventually have to ask the fourth, the son of a company president, for jobs. He, in turn, gets one of their girls. OzuFilms

Ozu revisits the dichotomy between schoolboy idealism and working world realities, this time focusing on four college friends, one of whom (Tatsuo Saito) happens to be the son of a corporate executive; the son takes over upon his father's death, and his friends come seeking employment. FlixSter

Their friendship clearly isn't the same under this new working relationship, the subordinates become yes-men to the point that one of them says nothing when Saito casts an eye on his fiance. This leads to a violent climax, a minute-long beating served by one friend to another that is all the more stunning in that the other two friends passively look on. Startlingly raw and deeply unresolved, this is perhaps Ozu's most disturbing exploration of social inequality and the damage it unleashes even among the most loyal friends. FlixSter
