It's our second to last Suzuki film which means after next week's Story of a Prostitute even if the Criterion Collection adds another we've got at least 700 episodes before we see it.

Gate of Flesh tells the story of some women who try to control their own lives in post-war Tokyo and the desperation they find themselves trapped in.
