This was an interesting movie with good actors and an explicit plot.It is worth seeing for Koichi Sato's great performance. This was a good movie for people that are into trashy romance.However,it isn't for all audiences but it is a compelling and fascinating film for adults. Very powerful.
Everything in this film is symbolic, the filmaking is first rate. Their anonymous and nihilistic sexual relationship reflected their inner torment. They let their unguarded selves show with each other because of the anonymity and therefore the ability to "be themselves", totally and completely without facade. In that respect, they were not exploiting each other for sex...they were being more open with each other than most "normal" relationships allowed. Next to Sea Cat and The Crest of Betrayal, Sato gives what I consider one of the best performances of his entire acting career.
The film to me represented a piece of art. Not something you want to watch when you're alone and tired. Good for couples if they're in the right mood.
