A graphic portrayal of insatiable sexual desire, Oshima's film, set in 1936 and based on a true incident, depicts a man and a woman (Tatsuya Fuji and Eiko Matsuda) consumed by a transcendent, destructive love while living in an era of ever escalating imperialism and governmental control. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
I like Japanese film, that's one thing. The second is the fact that the creators are not afraid. Exposing violence and nudity must be part of the film if it is part of the plot and the point of the story. Intentional obscuring and camera angles are pointless. I also like the strong self-destructive or destructive storyline. Everything I wanted. A powerful experience.
