I am amazed by the progressive cinema that Japan was offering the world in the 60's and Shohei Imamura contributed much to the expansion of the wonderful Japanese ''new wave''.Watch this film and you will understand what I'm talking about.

This is the film I bought the box set for. Here Imamura strikes the perfect balance between anthropological exploration and emotion. Sadako is the perfect heroine, a complex character who is never turned into a victim. The black and white cinematography is some of the most jaw dropping I've seen, and his direction is a hypnotic flow of images. Gripping and complex, this film is a hidden treasure of Japanese cinema.

I can't believe I haven't discovered this film earlier or this director. I love its combination of a documentary style with a dreamlike expressionism. I think this is one of the most beautiful black & white films I have seen of the 60's.

Lower and lower, deep down the soul of a woman in trouble.
