Riding the train in Hokkaido, itinerant peddler Tora-san meets Lily (Ruriko Asaoka), a cabaret singer, who later visits him in Shibamata. They fall in love, but argue and she eventually marries a sushi chef. This, the 11th film in the long-running series, is the first of four films featuring Lily, the most enduring of Tora-san's "Madonnas." (Shochiku)
