Virtually unknown outside of (and even within) Japan, this Shochiku
New Wave gem is set in a mining bunkhouse wherein a woman who survives
a double suicide becomes entwined in a peculiar relationship with her
dead lover's brother, a killer on the run. Another significant yet
overlooked progenitor of the New Wave's theoretical and formal ideals,
Tsutomu Tamura only made this one film as a director before leaving
Shochiku to create an independent production company with Nagisa
Oshima and write scripts for many of the renowned director's films,
including "The Catch" (1961), "Violence at Noon" (1966) and "Boy"
(1969).
