- Description
- It's the late Victorian period. Christopher, an American journalist (played by Billy Drago), has been travelling around Japan for an unspecified period looking for Komomo (played by Michie Itô), a lost girlfriend who he promised he would rescue from her life of prostitution and return with him to America. To that end he lands on an island solely populated by whores and their masters. He's solicited by a syphilitic tout (played by Mame Yamada) who claims not to have seen Komomo, but reckons he should enter the brothel anyway as he's got to spend the night somewhere. Christopher agrees, and asks for the company of a girl (played by Youki Kudoh) he'd seen lurking in the shadows at the back of the room where the prostitutes solicit for business.
