Synopsis

The life of renowned painter and poet Takehisa Yumeji is fantastically interpreted in this final entry in Seijun Suzuki’s Taisho trilogy—made ten years after his last film. Played by rock star Kenji Sawada, Yumeji’s iconoclastic life and art are distilled through a fictitious premise, wherein he falls for an alluring widow, whose murdered husband returns from the dead.

Yumeji’s Theme most fondly remembered as the iconic track featured in Wong Kar Wai’s In the Mood for Love was written for this film by composer Shigeru Umebayashi.
