二次世界大戰剛結束，萬事百廢待舉，人們靠著配給度日。一直等待戰後丈夫歸來的時子，獨立撐起家計，撫養幼子。一日，兒子突然病倒，時子為了籌備醫藥費，一夜捨身換取金錢。當兒子大病痊癒，丈夫終於歸來，尚未共享天倫之前，難掩心魔的時子坦承此事，丈夫大感羞愧氣憤，更失控動粗……。戰火已逝，他們卻仍等待陰影散去，如何諒解遺憾的過去、或面對挫敗的傷痕？創作於《晚春》前一年，小津收起一貫輕盈風格，不僅談戰爭之代價，更透過空鏡頭與敘事呈現戰後的頹敗凋零。田中絹代飾演苦難女性，詮釋無奈之痛、佐野周二則展現「大丈夫」糾結的矛盾情緒。小津自嘲為「無益的失敗之作」，學者佐藤忠男則盛讚本片喚起了日本所失去、令人追懷的純潔良善。家暴如戰爭罪愆，是時子被無情的侵踏、也是丈夫無所適從的憤怒，溢滿悲痛、苦澀與悲嘆。 

Perhaps OZU Yasujiro's darkest film, this devastating account of Japan’s wartime realities follows the struggles of Tokiko, a mother who is forced to turn to sex work in order to pay off her ill son’s medical bills. When her husband returns home from the war, her suffering is compounded by his refusal to forgive her actions. Anchored by a searing performance from the great TANAKA Kinuyo, A Hen in the Wind balances emotionally charged melodrama with OZU’s characteristic subtlety.

小津安二郎 OZU Yasujiro 

1903年生於日本東京深川，1963年逝世。1923年進入松竹蒲田片廠，1927年完成首作《懺悔之刃》，一生執導54部電影，經歷默片、有聲到彩色攝影轉換，見證日本二戰前後電影黃金年代。風格純粹簡約，低鏡位勾勒庶民百態，作品如《晚春》（1949）、《東京物語》（1953）等，影響影壇無數後人。

OZU Yasujiro (1903-1963) was a Japanese filmmaker. He began his career during the silent film era, and made his last films in the 1960s. Widely regarded as one of the world's greatest and most influential filmmakers, his most widely beloved films include Late Spring (1949), Tokyo Story (1953), and An Autumn Afternoon (1962).
