Song of Youth Synopsis
Shirō Kuroki, the adopted son of the Yamada family, shares a deep and mutual love with his foster sister, Kinuko Yamada.

The film was based on a serialized novel written by the poet Byakuren (real name Akiko Yanagiwara) and echoes the real-life scandal known as the Byakuren incident.
