This is a very nice Japanese classic movie. It depicts the life of some inmates serving in the notorious Abashiri prison. The hierarchy among inmates is the same as in Western culture, except that they continuously greet each other by nodding which is unique to Japanese culture.
Storytelling is so nice. Childhood memories of the lead character is shown with flashbacks. His attachment to his sick mother is so emotional. His sorrow is very well reflected to the viewer. Finally, the movie is blended with beautiful songs. They reminded me of Turkish ballads.
