Kyôko Takara

Pinku from 1970.

In a rural town the local elders and a band greet the arrival of a troupe of strippers. After a show two men who claim to be show biz producers make the elders an offer. If enough funds can be raised they will make their favorite lead stripper a star. Is this an offer too good to be true?

This humorous film provides a fascinating insight into Japan’s pornographic underworld, following a band of itinerant smut-peddlers, consisting of Hisao, his wife and main model Saku, and their partner in crime Tori, as they arrive, penniless, at a hot spring resort and attempt to make their money selling nude photos, staging live sex shows and screening homemade blue movies.

1969 pink film directed by Mamoru Watanabe.
