Perfect Education 5: Amazing Story

Snow-covered Hokkaido. A lone neon barber pole. Kenji arrives in a desolate town and promptly abducts Harumi, a hairdresser stuck in a loveless marriage. Confined together, an unexpected intimacy develops between them. An early work from a director who often finds beauty in stark, cold places.
