Sobre este producto
  • *This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!*19-year-old Tome is a sex worker who draws in customers around the red-light district of Osaka. She lives with her mentally disabled younger brother, Saneo, and her mother, Yone, who is also still active as a sex worker despite being over 40 years old. One day, after receiving a request for a young girl, Tome goes to the designated inn. On arrival she encounters Yone, who is unable to find work. A few days later, Yone tells Tome that she is pregnant…20 years have passed since the Prostitution Prevention Law was enacted, and the red-light district is now gone. Nonetheless, sex work as a profession persists. Noboru Tanaka's controversial film (also known as "Lusty Beast Market") portrays sorrowful but strong and resilient women who have no other choice but to earn a living by selling their bodies.Bonus Features: 1. "Private Business & Public Obscenities" video essay by Japanese cinema expert Jasper Sharp 2. 16 page booklet with a written essay by Japan Society film programmer Alexander Fee
