Morning: A 17 year old girl (Mimi Kozakura) wakes up on a rooftop,
half-dressed. Whe has just been gangraped by a quartet of punks, and the
blood from her subsequent defloration still marks the spot. Across her
sits a boy (Michio Akiyama), about her age, who has witnessed her rape and
has watched over her sleep. The boy is no knight in shining armour though,
he has masturbated to the guys raping the girl. Also, he seems to be of
the troubled kind, a bloodied bandage around his wrist suggests he has
tried committing suicide not too long ago. Eventually, the punks show up
again, and one of them rapes the girl again. The boy doesn't interfere.
The girl asks the punks to kill her, but they won't. She asks the boy to
kill her, but he claims he can't. Then he takes her to his apartment -
where she finds four naked dead bodies, draped on the floor almost as if
they were part of an artwork. Whe is shocked, and more so when the boy
tells her he has killed all four, because they raped him. Later he tried
to commit suicide, which explains the bandage around his wrist.
Interestingly, this only fuels the girls trust in the boy ... It's
almost nightfall, and the boy and girl rush back to the roof, which will
be shut during the night. The punks have decided to spend their night on
the roof as well, and they have brought their girlfriends, too. Still,
once the door to the roof is shut, they proceed to strip and gangrape the
girl again, even with their girlfriends watching - when the boy starts
killing off them and their girlfriends one by one. After the deed is done,
the girl insists the boy kills her as well, and when he won't, she wants
him to make love to her, actually claims she loves him. Again, the boy
turns her down, so she, nude as she is, leaps off the building to her
death. The boy follows her, so at least in death they will be united ... Striking
and impressive movie that tells its nihilistic story in a very own avant
garde way that at time borders the trippy, and which in style is somewhat
reminiscent of french nouvelle vague without ever becoming a mere
copycat. Apart from its idiosyncratic directorial effort, the film is
brought to life by its two leads that actually manage to bring their
intentionally stilted dialogue to life, and a haunting musical score that
features many a creepily slowed down version of a jazz standard. The
result is a movie that you aren't likely to soon forget. Recommended!
