Furyo Shojo / Naruse

[Schermann Susanne]

The film Furyo Shojo is considered to be lost, as is the
scenario, however, a script of the finished film (kansei
daihon) exists. 

If you read Japanese, you can get some more information
about this film in my book "Naruse Mikio - Nichijou no
kirameki", published by Kinema Junpo in 1997, second
revised edition in 2005.

Sincerely 
Susanne Schermann
