Summary Note |
"Set in 1936, Oshima's erotic masterpiece tells the story of Sada, a beautiful young geisha who draws the attention of the handsome Kichizo, a brothel owner's arrogant, sexually prodigious husband. Oblivious to a brutal war unfolding around them, the couple's initial flirtation seen turns to an all-consuming passion, a frenzied and fatal love-making rite"--Container. |
