When a dying friend tells out-of-work salaryman Yosuke (Koji Yakusho, Perfect Days) about a hidden treasure, he sets off in search of the only clue about its location: a house by a red bridge. What he finds instead is a woman who transcends all his fantasies. Japanese master Shohei Imamura's final feature reunites the cast and crew of his Palme d’or-winning The Eel for a boldly sensuous and taboo-breaking love story.
