Special Program (2) Filmmaker in Focus: SOMAI Shinji






Love Hotel / Rabu Hoteru
1985 / 88 min.
©1985 Nikkatsu

[Introduction]
A love story depicting the complicated lives of a man and a woman who have mutually hit rock bottom. It is also the first "roman porno" directed by SOMAI, who had been an assistant director at Nikkatsu, and its extended takes and use of evocative popular songs draw attention to the man and woman's affection. The final scene shot in one take is also excellent.
