AI NO CORRIDA (1976) is Nagisa Oshima's hardcore sex version of the bizarre Sada Abe murder-mutilation-necrophilia case, which stunned Japanese society in 1936. Produced in France to avoid Japan's strict censorship laws, Oshima's film caused outrage upon its release but has since been recognised as a masterpiece of erotic cinema, and one which goes far beyond mere pornography in its investigation into the nature of sexual obsession and death. This special ebook provides a detailed overview of Oshima's controversial film classic, accompanied by rarely-seen publicity photographs. Also included as a bonus feature is an illustrated account of the Sada Abe murder case. With 17 images in total, 7 in full colour.
