Pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, dans une fabrique d'instruments d'optique, de jeunes ouvrières travaillent sur les viseurs d'artilleurs. Une ouvrière tombe malade, abandonne son travail, puis le reprend. Une autre se blesse, mais n'abandonne pas l'usine. Un film de propagande pour l'effort de guerre japonais.

A sixteen-year-old who had been living on her own since her mother died, frequently gets in trouble with the police. She gets sent to an "institute" for young girls in the countryside. There the residents grow their own food, cook and clean for themselves, and are taught language, music, and sewing. While there the young girl slowly begins to form friendships and come out of her shell.

With his simple appearance, eyes shining with love and a sense of justice, and voice burning with youthful passion, the eleven students felt unexpectedly in each other's hearts that "this teacher will surely be our confidant," and looked at each other and nodded their heads. This was the beginning of their collective affection for the new Ms. Shiono. The school for girls is a sacred place where the hearts of hundreds of innocent girls should ferment beautifully and freely for the day when they will become wives and mothers to come. How can we abandon them in such a state? Even after the nightmarish war was over, the nightmare remained at Shuei Girls' School.
