This suspense drama, set against the backdrop of Peggy Hayama's hit song, was adapted from an original story by Kawauchi Yasunori by the author himself and Saito Takeichi, and directed by Saito Takeichi. Cinematography by Takamura Kurataro. --Harada Joji was a master gambler, known by the nickname "Eye of Dice. When his prison term expires, he heads for his hometown of Kochi, where his mother, Bu, and his girlfriend, Harue, are waiting for him. While in prison, he hears Peggy Hayama's "After Minamikokutosa," a song that reminds him of his brother who died in a suicide mission, and he is reformed. Hamako, his late brother's ex-wife who now runs a ryotei restaurant in Tokyo, loves this song and sings it often. When Joji returns home, he finds that Harue has been forced to marry Kitamura, a yakuza gangster, to pay her debts. Joji works at a port office, but his criminal record becomes known and he is forced out of his job. Harue stops Joji from leaving for Tokyo again, but the dagger of Kitamura's gang closes in on him. At that moment, Jyoji's former comrade Aizu saves them both. This product is a low-priced re-release of the previously released DVD.
