Original lang: Japanese
Pleasures of the Flesh is a tale about a young college graduate who, alienated in his white-collar job and pining for a woman for whom he has committed murder (though she isn't aware of it), somehow winds up entrusted with a vast sum of money by a corrupt government official. Intending to squander the cash in pursuit of sensual abandonment and commit suicide after it runs out, the naive young killer checks into a hypermodern "love hotel".
