- Synopsis
- A group of pre-pubescent children clad in military uniforms rebel against their parents and begin hunting adults. A choir of schoolgirls strips while singing 'when I grow up to be a whore'. A young man struggles in vain to break through his cousin's chastity belt. These are but a sampling of images culled from the mind of revolutionary poet, playwright, and filmmaker Shuji Terayama, a major figure in the heady wave of Japanese experimental cinema in the 1970s. This is a short and adapted version, promoted by Terayama himself, of the 1970 full-length feature that goes under the same title.
