Pinku Eiga is the name given to Japanese erotic cinema principally produced in the 60s and 70s, always revolving around tales of extreme passion and violence; consumer films, the delirious proposals of which have now become cult objects for movie buffs with a strong penchant for strange, unclassifiable works. The ?Pinku Eiga Night? will include two classics by masters in the genre. Tokyo, 1923. Lady Minako is the owner of a shabby boarding house with a collection of bizarre characters for tenants. Goda, one of them, spends most of his time in the attic spying on the other tenants through holes he has drilled into the ceiling.
