Synopsis

Confronting a dark moment in modern Japanese history, Eros Plus Massacre chronicles the final days of prominent feminist Noe Ito– beautifully portrayed by Mariko Okada–and her lover, the firebrand anarchist Sakae Osugu, leading up to their brutal assassination in 1923 by the military authorities.

MUBI's take

An arthouse landmark, Yoshishige Yoshida’s epic charts two crucial moments of upheaval in his country: the ‘20s, rife with political assassinations, and the tumultuous ’60s. Made in the director’s radical, high modernist style, this is the rare classic that is both under-seen and still provocative.
