Intending to turn a tidy profit renovating a crumbling house, the broker tries to drive the artist and his family out of the home by moving his bawdy mistress into it. The plan starts to splinter when she agrees to sit for a portrait. Kinoshita deftly balances humour and drama for an astute reflection on art, reality, commerce, and fundamental humanism.
