公鸡打鸣，母鸡下蛋

抗战胜利后，建筑工程师丁建华（石羽饰）偕妻漱兰（路明饰）返回上海，暂居远亲龚某（蓝马饰）家。龚原系包工头，沦陷期间曾以物资资敌而致富，胜利后以五百根金条买得“地下工作者”身份，得以逍遥法外。时漱兰将分娩，丁母（王苹饰）卧病不起，丁多方奔走，仍找不到工作和住房。不久，漱兰生一男孩，因无力抚养，准备送往孤儿院。龚某因无后，愿将婴儿收留抚养。龚妻（上官云珠饰）对婴儿任意虐待，漱兰不忍，龚妻又将婴儿掷还漱兰。建华夫妇遂迁出龚宅，寄居一巨厦檐下。一天，建华发现巨厦为自己当年设计建造。拾阶至顶，念在己身为建筑师，竟无栖身之所，悲愤欲绝，忽闻楼下喧哗声，缘门警正驱逐漱兰，丁气极失足坠楼，待众人抢救，已奄奄一息。警察拾其遗落皮包，见建筑工程师证件，众皆摇首叹息。

Aki and Naoko are childhood friends who are drifting apart as adults. Immersed in her family life, Naoko now has a husband and daughter; Aki, on the other hand, remains single and is on leave from work due to a personal crisis. The plot might sound familiar but it has never been told like this. The director Kusano Natsuka stages the interactions through an actors’ table-read and, as the lines are repeated, the scenes gradually develop into on-location conversations. Moreover, she repositions the dramatic peak of the story to the beginning: Aki has murdered Naoko’s daughter.Structurally inventive, Kusano's daring cinema implements ‘distantiation’ effects to get to the heart of friendship issues at times when life has settled. While the repetitions convey the suffocation of role patterns in both friendship and family, a line left out or added in unsettles and reminds us life can take unexpected turns.
