AKA:
Shohei Imamura
Nippon konchuki
Synopsis:
The film is a metaphor for life in Japan through the middle twentieth
century, including World War II. The title refers to an insect,
repeating its mistakes, as in an infinite circle. Imamura, with this
metaphor, introduces the life of Tome, who keeps trying to change her
poor life.
Tome is molested from childhood by her stepfather. As a young adult she
moves from her rural village to find work in factory, where she engages
in an affair with her boss. She works later as a maid, and then as a
prostitute.
