Japanese horror master Takashi Miike searches the corpse-strewn riverbanks of 19th-century Japan in this tale of an American journalist (BILLY DRAGO) escaping a dark family secret. Hoping to find the love he left behind, the journalist's hunt leads to a dark island where the only refuge is a brothel. Spending the night with a unique woman (YOUKI KUDOH), he learns the danger of dredging up old ghosts. Based on the terrifying Kadokawa Shoten Publishing novel BOKKEE KYOUTEE by Shimako Iwai.
