Play It Cool

College girl Yumi (Mari Atsumi) was pushed by her geisha mother Tomi (Akemi Negishi), who wanted better for her daughter. Those plans ended after Yumi's stepfather forced himself on her... and Tomi went to prison for her fatal response. Now working at her mom's hostess bar to survive, Yumi will find that a more upscale job offer from club owner Nozawa (Yusuke Kawazu) will just involve a better class of degradation, in Yasuzô Masumura's erotically charged crime opus. AKA: "Electric Jellyfish." Widescreen; Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; featurette; image gallery; theatrical trailer. 94 min. In Japanese with English subtitles.
