| Drawn from the pen of one of Japans foremost writers of the 20th century, Junichiro Tanizaki (A FooIs Love, The Makioka Sisters), lrezumi is a styIish taIe of Iust, betrayaI and revenge directed by Yasuzo Masumura (Giants and Toys, BIind 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 fIight, 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, radicaIIy aItering her relationships with aII around her as her personaIity transforms under its influence. Available for the first time outside of Japan in a new 4K restoration, lrezumi sports some of Japanese cinemas most respected talent of its day both in front of and behind the camera. The bewitching cinematography by Kazuo Miyagawa (Rashomon, Ugetsu) captures the sensual atmosphere of the period setting, while the script by Kaneto Shindo (Onibaba, Kuroneko) lends a modern twist to this feverish meditation on obsession and the act of creation.
