Desade

From the collector of Marquis de Sade in the early 1960s still a dark age of erotic picture even his novels were forbidden to publish in Tokyo I burrowed the copies of the engraving taken from the 18th century edition of The story of Juliette and of The story of Justine and rearranged along a story made from of the pictures not from the novels An exercise out of the curiosity It was the same year I made Ai Love in 1962 which consists of mostly extreme closeups of love making I have kept DeSade for many years in my closet without looking at it myself and have forgotten about it By a chance I refound the film 50 years later that there is something worth to see TI 2012
