Lightning

23-year-old Kiyoko works as a tour guide in Tokyo and lives with her single mother and her three older adult siblings. Her brother Kasuke is an unemployed war veteran and, while everyone in her family pushes Kiyoko to find a man to marry, there is little pressure on him to find a wife. Her oldest sister Nuiko wants Kiyoko to date the baker Tsunakichi, who secretly is her own lover. From her siblings, Kiyoko is closest to her sister Mitsuko. When Mitsuko's husband dies, his mistress and her newborn child come to the house to ask Mitsuko for money from her husband's life insurance. Also Nuiko, Kasuke and the mother want to borrow money from Mitsuko for their own pursuits. Mitsuko eventually decides to use the money partly for her husband's illegitimate son and for opening up her own coffee shop.
