Makoto, a young drifter, walks out of a train station and bumps into a young woman, Nami. Stunned by her beauty, he becomes obsessed and follows her to the real estate office where she and her older husband, Hideki, work. Makoto is quickly able to get a job from Hideki and thus begins an escalating tension between him and Nami, who he is determined to win over at any cost.
One of Takashi Ishii’s more subtle works, ORIGINAL SIN disguises itself as a simple romantic drama, taking its time to cement its character relationships and motivations before revealing a darker core. With a strong performance from the small cast, particularly from Shinobu Otake (A NIGHT IN NUDE: SALVATION) as Nami, and beautiful cinematography from Ishii’s longtime collaborator Yasushi Sasakibara (A NIGHT IN NUDE & FREEZE ME), ORIGINAL SIN is a high mark from Ishii’s already distinguished filmmaking career.
