An innocent young woman is violently raped by the local lord on her wedding night. To take revenge, she makes a pact with the Devil himself who appears as an erotic sprite and transforms her into a black-robed vision of madness and desire.

A zenith in feature film animation, Eiichi Yamamoto’s masterpiece took six years to make and went unseen in the West until this resplendent restoration appeared. Doused in satanism, witchcraft, and born of the sexual revolution, this dark tale of a woman’s vengeance is not for the faint of heart.
