Synopsis by Dan Pavlides

A woman (Mie Hama) awaits her court date and trial for killing her husband's mistress. While out on bail, she meets a young man at a beach party, and the two have a summer romance. Returning to the courtroom, she is acquitted of the charges as the jury believes she killed the woman in self defense. She passes by her summer love as if he was a stranger she had never met in this melodrama highlighted by cavorting topless females dancing at a beach party.
