Irezumi - Masumura Yasuzo - 1966


The challenge in the film is to understand the real source of Otsuya's rage.

What do you think the spider tattoo means? Perhaps it represents the expectations of men which silently and invisibly (she can't see the tattoo on her back but felt the pain of receiving it) have altered her life.

Why do you think Otsuya and not some other woman received this tattoo - was it just for her beauty?
