Description
A seductive psychological thriller about obsession, jealousy and deceit – and a Japanese queer classic. Sonoko must tell her story. Listen and decide for yourself.
Sonoko Kakiuchi is a cultured Osaka lady in an uninspiring marriage. When she decides to take an art class in town she meets the extraordinary Mitsuko, a woman as beautiful and charismatic as she is cunning. They begin a passionate affair but as Sonoko’s infatuation with Mitsuko deepens, she finds herself sinking ever-further into a quicksand of sex, humiliation and deceit.
