An idyllic and quiet horror movie in the age of the occult. Tadashi lives alone with his younger sister Kyoko, who has returned to Japan after a divorce. The older brother tries desperately to get rid of it, but in fact, the two siblings have an incestuous relationship, and Kyoko is possessed by Izuna, who is used by Kyoko's ex-husband who resents the relationship. The screen is black and white and eerie. Izuna smiles fearlessly at her. A brother and sister who cannot settle their warped love. With elaborate art reminiscent of Japanese houses and customs of the 1950s, the film brilliantly depicts a mature mystery world with a nostalgic flavour.

"I have not been very active as a social filmmaker anymore after the revolution, though I had great plans and projects at the start of the revolution! So far I have made many so-called commissioned industrial films for national oil, gas, and steel companies as well as for government ministries, in which I tried to bring the films as close as possible to my taste and to my way of thinking and make the films' sponsors to see the world from content and formal viewpoints.
