Just after the Second World War, in a very rural mountain village, the arrival of a girl, Okin, and her friend attracts curiosity from the locals. Originally a village girl herself Okin has now become an artistic dancer in Tokyo going by the stage name of Carmen.
The principal of the village school (CHISHU Ryu, Tokyo Story), who considers himself a champion of the arts, is overjoyed to learn that his small village produced such an artist. However, when he sees the ways Carmen and her friend dress and behave, he and the other villagers are confused. It turns out that Carmen is not a ""true"" artistic dancer, but instead an 'exotic"" one and is determined to showcase her dancing skills for the villagers...
This iconic light-hearted comedy was Japan's first ever feature film produced in full colour. Carmen Comes Home endures as one of KINOSHITA Keisuke’s most beloved films, exploring the shifts and disparities in post-war Japanese moral standards. Starring acclaimed actress TAKAMINE Hideko, who was loved by many era-defining Japanese filmmakers including NARUSE Mikio.
