Notes
  • Release date: 03/26/1966.
  • Literal title translation: A prayer for our love to the stars.
  • Patricia Allemann comments that "Shima's 86th film is undistinguished and the plot sentimental. Although Shima grazes such topics as societal attitudes toward women, he refuses to delve deeply into any, resulting in an almost total lack of psychological insight. This combined with a certain emphasis on trivial detail, makes for a thinly composed, superficial film."
