Story
In the year 1972, a small group of left-wing students are living at a dingy Tokyo apartment in the mountain village of Karuizawa in Nagano-ken, Japan. While the group leader, Aizawa waits to be released from prison, his promiscuous girlfriend, Masami is left in charge of the group. While waiting for Aizawa's release, Masami uses her overt sexuality and engages in promiscuity with the fellow students. As the days pass by, things take a tragic turn. Within a few days of his release, the group's leader soon commits hari-kiri. After learning of Aizawa's suicide, the shotgun- toting Masami loses control and the group quickly falls into self-destruction, as sex, distrust, paranoia, and violence overtakes the group.[1]
