Nagisa Oshima's notorious 1976 film plays on 35mm at SIFF Film Center in Queen Anne on Thursday, September 3—a rare chance to see this Japanese New Wave provocation in its intended format on actual film stock. The story of a couple's relationship told through increasingly explicit scenes remains genuinely unsettling, the kind of thing that demands to be seen rather than read about. Fair warning: it's explicitly sexual and deeply strange, which is precisely why people still argue about it fifty years later.Venue
