A slow, feverish plunge into erotic fixation, staged with theatrical intensity and a lingering sense of doom.
- Tagline
- A true story of sexual obsession.
- Overview
- On 17 May 1936–during a period of war, economic depression, public unease and growing militarism, a time of unrest and confusion when public opinion was, at best, unpredictable–Sada Abe killed and emasculated her lover. Condemned by the law, Sada finds herself lionised by the press and hailed as a 'saint' of love. Because hers was a crime of passion, the purity of her motivation elevates her from criminal to heroine.
