When Does the Second Film "The Sands of Kurobe" (2009) Take Place?

"Kurobe no Taiyō" (literally "The Sun of Kurobe" or "The Sun in Kurobe") is a historical fiction film written by Sumio Omori [adapting "Kurobe no Taiyō" (1964) by Shōji Kimoto] that released March 21st, 2009. So when is "The Sands of Kurobe" set? 


It takes place in the year: 

1950s AD 


We know this because Kuramatsu is involved in the creation of the Kanden Tunnel needed to bring supplies to the site of the construction of the unique real-world Kurobe Dam, which started in July of 1956 AD and was competed in June of 1963 AD. So it must take place between July of 1956 AD and June of 1963 AD.
