Takeshi Shima

A critique of the Japanese family, seen here as militaristic, absurdly incestuous and patriarchal. Nihilistic destruction by the young ones seems to be the only way out. This should be seen as Wakamatsu’s answer to Nagisa Oshima’s The Ceremony, made in the same year.

1969 pink film directed by Mamoru Watanabe.

Mishima has just committed suicide. Two couples meet by accident at an inn in the countryside, the man and the woman, now, each with a new partner, who knew each other already for ten years...

Pinku from 1972.

Pinku from 1969.

A "short" boy who is unable to perform satisfactory sexual acts. His childhood sweetheart understands him and a new life begins, but it does not go well. A sincere story that warns against the superficial liberation of sexuality. The lead actress, Eri Nakaoji (exclusive to Kuniei), is lovely. Original story and production by actress Matsui Yasuko. One of the best works by the prolific director Satoru Kobayashi.

A rarity that erotically parodies the fairy tales "Issunboshi," "Kaguyahime," and "Tsuru no Ongaeshi." Blends live action and animation.
