The King of Minami: The Flower of Temptation
2003, Japanese. Directed by Sadaaki Haginiwa.
This is the 25th installment of the long-running OV series, which delves into the dark side of society that is often overlooked. This ambitious film sheds light on the ruthless, unknown side of sex-related businesses such as host clubs and brothels, which target people indulging in unbridled desire. Maejima (Bonchi Osamu), an ice shop owner who falls in love with a woman working at a restaurant in Toyota Shinchi, borrows 2 million yen from Ginjiro (Takeuchi) to help her out of debt, but falls into a clever trap set by the greedy host club owner, losing both the shop's land and the building.
