É entre os camponeses, os miseráveis, os gângsteres e as prostitutas que Imamura encontra terreno fértil. A Mulher Inseto (Nippon Konchuki, 1963), uma de suas obras-primas do período, conta a história de uma camponesa que, tal como um inseto, faz sua escalada da sobrevivência. Tendo atravessado, desde a adolescência, a violência sexual e o incesto, sua mudança para a cidade grande a conduz diretamente à prostituição e afinal ao controle de um bordel, onde passa a praticar toda sorte de atos vis, dos quais antes fora vítima. O tratamento do personagem como uma verdadeira heroína é absolutamente novo no até então moralista cinema japonês. E as tomadas de estilo documental, nas quais freqüentemente o personagem principal não passa de uma cabeça perdida na multidão das ruas da cidade, propõem exatamente o oposto das imagens de estúdio da Shochiku, sempre bem compostas e nítidas.
