A searing, disturbing, and extremely graphic indictment of the twin hypocrisies of excessive materialism and sexual puritanism, which combine to create an exploited underclass of sex merchants forced to feed the perversions of their powerful tormentors. Plot Summary A young babyfaced prostitute drifts through the sharp-edged world of kinky sex. An older callgirl in the agency schools her on the trade. Numbed by drugs, she encounters a string of wealthy johns with bizarre fantasies. Her own fantasy about love leads Ai away from the skin trade and on the trail of a married artist.   Features Keep Case Anamorphic Widescreen - 1.78 Audio: (Unspecified) - Japanese, English Subtitles - English - Optional   Technical Info Release Information Studio: Koch International Release Date: 8/5/2008 Running Time: 112 minutes Original Release Date: 1992 Catalog ID: 1658 UPC: 00891514001658 Number of Discs: 1 Audio & Video Original Language: Japanese Available Audio Tracks: English Dubbed, Japanese Available Subtitles: English Video: Color   Cast & Crew Miho Nikaido Sayoko Amano Ryu Murakami - Director   Product Image

I do not like the movie, because it was basically a weak plot and the adult portions of the movie were not substantial enough to carry the flick
