A housewife who borrowed money at
high interest and has difficulty in returning the debt is demanded
by the usurer to give her body. She kills the usurer by mistake
when they are struggling with one another. She is sentenced to five
years' imprisonment by the help of a lawyer with a strong sense
of justice. This court play was a great hit. But Matsugekidan was
sued by the author Ryosho Taira for the infringement of the copyright.
The case was settled out of court for not performing for the time
being.
