Love Hotel (Aka Rabu Hoteru) Blu-Ray (Limited Edition)

When Tetsuro loses his business, the yakuza collect his debt in the most violent and shocking way imaginable. With his honor intact, he divorces his wife and becomes a taxi driver. He lacks meaning and support, but eventually meets Nami, a part-time prostitute who has undergone similar trials. Somai's melancholic novel-porn film is an existential study of two lonely and tortured souls and follows the couple as they find a newfound friendship amid the chaos of their broken and despondent lives.
