| Drawn from the pen of one of Japans foremost writers of the 20th century, Junichiro Tanizaki (A Fools Love, The Makioka Sisters), lrezumi is a styIish tale of Iust, betrayaI and revenge directed by Yasuzo Masumura (Giants and Toys, Blind Beast). Masumuras muse Ayako Wakao (The Blue Sky Maiden, Red AngeI) stars as Otsuya, the daughter of a rich merchant, who is tempted by her Iover, Shinsuke, a Iowly empIoyee of her fathers, to elope. During their flight, Otsuyas beauty attracts the gaze of Seikichi, a mysterious master tattooist who sees her pristine white skin as the perfect canvas for his art. The image of the Iarge demonic spider that he emblazons across Otsuyas back marks her as the property of another man, radicalIy aItering her relationships with all around her as her personaIity transforms under its influence. AvailabIe for the first time outside of Japan in a new 4K restoration, Irezumi sports some of Japanese cinemas most respected taIent of its day both in front of and behind the camera. The bewitching cinematography by Kazuo Miyagawa (Rashomon, Ugetsu) captures the sensuaI atmosphere of the period setting, whiIe the script by Kaneto Shindo (Onibaba, Kuroneko) Iends a modern twist to this feverish meditation on obsession and the act of creation.
