When a Woman Ascends the Stairs

Keiko, who everyone refers to as Mama, tells her life story: she's a hostess on the Ginza, 30 years old, and a widow. She explains the cyclical nature of life, which includes being happy around drunks, needing money for these bills and for her demanding mother and brother, and realizing that she's getting older. She has reached the age where she must make a decision between three options: seeking marriage (which will be difficult considering her soiled profession), being a kept lady, or borrowing money to open a bar of her own. An investor's demand for a return on his or her loan is a risk on every path. Men are drawn to Keiko because of her peaceful dignity, but are these men really who they claim to be? Is she genuinely in a position of choice?
