I have no regrets about my youth

This is director Akira Kurosawa's first film after World War II. The Kyoto University professor Ryukawa incident caused an uproar during the war, and the prevalence of warlordism among Minister of Culture Hatoyama, the expulsion of Kyoto Imperial University professor Ryukawa who advocated liberalism was unanimously opposed by Kyoto Imperial University. In addition, it uses the Zorug international disc incident as the background to describe the heroine Xingzhi's encounters in the war, and then criticizes the war and the prevailing fascism at the time. The latter part of the film describes the hardships faced by Yukieda, who decided to become independent. After following Noge, she tasted the happiness of love for the first time, but the good times did not last long. Noge was imprisoned for life for secretly engaging in anti-war movements, and Yukieda was interrogated by the spies every day and suffered humiliation. The prosecutor in charge of this case was actually Itokawa, his classmate at the time. After Xingzhi was released, he returned to Noma's beloved hometown and spent time with Noma's parents. After Japan's defeat in the war, democracy prevailed, Professor Yagihara returned to school, and Yukieda decided to engage in the rural cultural movement. Yukieda in the film is not a traditional woman from Japan's past, but a new-age woman who has finally found herself after the war and the chaotic period after the war, and is loyal to her own will.
