| Brief Description: | In a nameless Japanese metropolis, a married couple watches their marriage turn dull and sexless after their careers begin consuming their lives. Everything changes, however, with the arrival of a mysterious envelope containing pictures of Rinko (Asuka Kurosawa) pleasuring herself. Before they know it, Rinko and her husband (Yuji Koutari) are involved in a dark, erotic game marked by burning desires and strange psychological tortures. Shinya Tsukamoto renders their physical and emotional journey in stylish, blue-tinted monochrome, turning their surroundings "into a terrifying cyberpunk urban sprawl where Rinko's worst fears, and deepest desires, may yet be realized" (BBC).
