- Synopsis:
When smalltown girl Yuki (Hiroko Isayama from Woods are Wet) arrives in the big city of Tokyo, she soon falls into bad company. Falling under the spell of the swaggeringly cocksure Taku (Ichiro Araki from Nagisa Oshima's Sing a Song of Sex), she advances from petty pickpocketing and pilfering from bookstores to covering for much more major misdemeanours. It is not long before she discovers the old adage is true - that there is no honour among thieves. Released early on in Nikkatsu's Roman Porno erotic line of the 1970s, this steamy countercultural youth movie is the feature debut of cult Japanese action movie director Toru Murakawa (The Most Dangerous Game, The Resurrection of the Golden Wolf), shot by Shohei Imamura's regular cinematographer Shinsaku Himeda (Pigs and Battleships, The Pornographers) from a script by one of the studio's most prized filmmakers, Tatsumi Kumashiro. - Actors:
