Pigs and Warships
(Buta to gunkan)

by Shôhei IMAMURA

Near Tokyo, bars, nightclubs and brothels have sprung up around an American naval base. When the government launches a clean-up campaign, the hoodlums who control the area have to find a new job. They go into a partnership with an Hawaiian and decide to set up a pig farm whose meat will be sold to the American naval base.
