Una página de locura
Director of Photography
Un marinero se emplea como ordenanza en un manicomio para liberar a su esposa, que se encuentra recluida luego de que intentara suicidarse y matar a su bebé. Esta es una restauración de la copia hecha por el mismo Kinugasa en la década del 70. Kinugasa redescubrió su copia personal, supuestamente en un cobertizo de su jardín y escondida en una maceta. Para prepararla para un nuevo lanzamiento, quitó algunas de las escenas más convencionales, así como eliminó todos los intertítulos, sin duda para hacer la película aún más "avant-garde" de lo que había sido. No hay constancia de que exista una versión original.
