Plot

A playwright and a mysterious woman.

Sinekatalog’s take

Seijun Suzuki's dreamlike second Taisho-era film follows a playwright drawn into a mysterious woman's world of illusions. Yusaku Matsuda anchors a stylish, hallucinatory and gorgeously coloured exercise in love, death and theatre.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
