For Nami, life is going pretty good. Her job as a nurse is very fulfilling, and her boyfriend Kenji is doing well as a photographer of nude women. Life for Muraki isn't so hot. Implicated in an embezzlement scandal, he has been fired from his job, and is now on the run from the investors who lost money to him. He decides to leave Tokyo and start a new life. When Nami is nearly raped by patients at the hospital, she runs off to find solace with Kenji. When she discovers Kenji is doing more than photography with his models, she takes off again, only to be hit by Muraki's car. At first he tries to help her, then he decides to take advantage of the unconscious woman. For these two people, their accidental meeting will mark the start of a bizarre relationship that will either bring them to the heights of ecstasy, or plunge them deeper into despair.
There's lots of sensual sleaze on tap, especially in the riveting first third which is chock full of depraved sex. It gets a bit mellower after that but Ishii gives us a handful of good strong sex scenes to help appease the insatiable appetites of violent pink fanatics such as myself. Every frame is beautifully lensed and Ishii really shows his love and enthusiasm for the material.
