Pinku from 1972.
A critique of the ideal Japanese family, here seen as militaristic, absurdly incestuous and patriarchal. And only nihilistic destruction by the young ones seems to be the only way out.
Kôichi Kihara
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...
1969 pink film directed by Mamoru Watanabe.
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.
