The Brother (1971)
The entire city eagerly awaits Kaku’s return, anticipating his response to a collective injustice they have endured. When Kaku finally comes back, his brother is particularly eager to see him. However, in practice, Kaku appears unexpectedly tame and calm. He yearns for a peaceful life after his release from prison. As subsequent events unfold, Kaku’s capacity for serenity is tested, particularly in the incident involving his brother’s beloved girl and the final confrontation with a neighborhood bully.
