Sex Family

1971 · 73 min

A claustrophobic, unsettling provocation that feels like a nightmare of domestic order turned inside out, cold and confrontational.

Overview: A critique of the Japanese family, seen here as militaristic, absurdly incestuous and patriarchal with the father dominating his family sexually and violently. Nihilistic destruction by the young ones seems to be the only way out.
How it feels: Dark, bleak, absurd and satirical. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Power, family, violence, rebellion
Content: Strong violence and sexual content. Mild gore and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
