Warm Water Under a Red Bridge Blu-ray 2001 Radiance Shohei Imamura

A masterful blend of body-horror-lite, sex, and social satire!

Introducing Radiance Films' Blu-ray (Region B) release for 2001's Warm Water Under a Red. Japanese master Shohei Imamura's final feature reunites the cast and crew of his Palme d’or-winning The Eel for a boldly sensuous and taboo-breaking love story.

When a dying friend tells out-of-work salaryman Yosuke (Koji Yakusho, Perfect Days) about a hidden treasure, he sets off in search of the only clue about its location: a house by a red bridge. What he finds instead is a woman who transcends all his fantasies.

IMPORTANT NOTE: An all-region Blu-ray player is required to view this movie. Standard U.S. Blu-ray players will NOT read Region B discs. If you're looking for a reliable all-region player, we've got you covered!
