Za yobai
1985, Japanese. Directed by Akitaka Kimata.
Since ancient times, in peaceful fishing villages facing the ocean, village elders still followed the tradition of requiring virgins to marry. In this country where radio wave culture has completely permeated... even now. This is a semi-documentary Nikkatsu that obscenely and abnormally captures this lewd ritual and a world where innocent sexual habits such as night crawling are openly practiced.
