Description:

In August 1918, Matsuura Ito faces hardship in a coastal village of Toyama. Her husband is far away at sea, struggling to catch fish, leaving Ito to support their three children by carrying goods from ships. A new, more pressing crisis soon grips the community: the price of rice begins to soar uncontrollably. The village women, including Ito, find themselves unable to feed their families as essential food becomes unaffordable. Their desperate appeal to a nearby rice store for lower prices is met with failure, and costs continue their relentless daily climb. When a pivotal incident finally pushes them past their breaking point, Ito and the other women realize it is time to take a courageous stand. This compelling film, "Angry Rice Wives," chronicles their powerful fight for justice and survival.
