This is the story of two young girls who are working as call girls. The main person, Rei (Sawa Suzuki), is an S and M Mistress who likes to play with her slaves. The other girl is the more reserved Ayumi (Reiko Kataoka), who is a prostitute, pretending to be under age. They both have a normal life too, Rei is an actress struggling for success and Ayumi has a relation with a student. There's not much story to tell about, but it is all beautifully photographed. It also offers an insight in the world of Sado Masochism. Throughout the film there are some moments in which pictures are shown of Suzuki, they were made by the famous photographer Araki. The purpose of those pictures is unknown to me. This movie offers an interesting insight into the Japanese society. Ordinary men, working in large offices, enterprises and also the Japanese Mafia (Yakuza), try to get rid of the stress by letting themselves be whipped by the beautiful Rei.
There is a lot of nudity in this film, but it never gets obscene. The actors perform very good. When I watched the film I was amazed by the cheerfulness with which the two call-girls do what they do.
Finally the movie didn't show the traditional Japan as I knew it, it showed a modern country with people who could have lived anywhere in the Western world.
I would give this movie 8 out of 10.
