Widowed TV producer Aoyama (Ryo Ishibashi) decides to look for a new wife and craftily holds an 'audition' to find his new beau. But the young dancer (Elhi Shiina) who wins his heart has led a traumatic life and is a few pirouettes short of a full performance...
Director Mike Takashi takes an almost Zen-like approach to this story of female revenge against male domination in that very little happens for much of the film. But this just makes the last half-hour all the more shocking, with one of the most excruciating torture scenes you're ever likely to see.
