Kurenai no Tsubasa (Japanese: 紅の翼, lit. "Crimson Wings") is a 1958 black and white Japanese film directed by Kō Nakahira.[1] [2] [3]
On Hachijojima island, a child suffers from tetanus and urgently needs serum delivered. The pilot Ishida Yasuji ends up flying a small Cessna after a larger airplane breaks down. Newspaper reporter Yukie and Ohashi, who originally chartered the Cessna, accompany him, but Ohashi, who has just killed a man, forces Ishida to land the plane on a small island along the way in an attempt to escape capture.[4]
