If you loved Love − Zero = Infinity, try Muscle
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Hisayasu Satō, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Love − Zero = Infinity, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Muscle is
Tokyo. Summer heat. The click of a shutter. Ryuzaki, a physique magazine editor, falls into a brutal S&M affair with the narcissistic Kitami. One year after a prison sentence, Ryuzaki hunts down his former lover. Sato's film is a key title for fans of Japanese erotic horror.
