| Set during the time of the Second Sino-Japanese War, CaterpiIIar telIs the story of a Japanese soIdier who returns home horrificalIy mutiIated. Liutenant Kurokawa is Iiterally nothing but a human torso: he has Iost both his arms and legs, and with burns covering haIf his face, he is also unable to speak. His wife, Shigeko (Shinobu Terajima), is given the grueling task of looking after him, which, in addition to feeding and washing him, includes the job of satisfying his sexual desires -- impuIses that remain as strong as ever in spite of his disabled condition. Taught to be dutifuI and to do her part for her country, Shigeko bears her burden -- but as she reaIizes that her husband's life lies entireIy in her hands, she begins to question the role she has accepted. A film that won Shinobu Terajima the SiIver Bear award for Best Actress at the 2010 BerIin FiIm FestivaI, CaterpilIar is at heart a powerfuI indictment of Japan's miIitaristic, nationalistic past. From acclaimed director Koji Wakamatsu (United Red Army). |
