Synopsis

From Japan's Kokuei Company and Germany's Rapid Eye Movies comes a whimsical pink film (softcore) musical about a woman and a sea creature. The story involves Asuka, a woman in her thirties who works in a lakeside fish factory. She's about to be married to her boss, Taki. But one day, she encounters a kappa--a water sprite found in Japanese folklore--and learns that the creature is in fact the reborn form of Aoki, an old friend who'd drowned to death when he was 17. What ensues is a spectacle of songs and sex that is at once zany, erotic and poignant.

Directed by pink-film veteran Shinji IMAOKA (Lunch Box; Frog Song), shot by Christopher Doyle--the famed cinematographer and with music by Germany's Stereo Total, Underwater Love promises to be unlike anything you've ever seen. The film is set to be completed September 2010.
