Tokyo Decadence
Well, we all knew it would someday come to this...
Tokyo Decadence is not really porn but it´s pretty graphic. It´s a movie about a shy S/M prostitute named Ai who is miserable because her lover remarried. The reasons she resorted to prostitution are unclear and not explained in the movie but most probably because she thinks she has no other talent.She works at an escort company and has to attend some of the most depraved desires of wealthy Japanese men and yakuza guys. The first two-thirds of the film consists in large part of four sex sequences. Two involve dildos and mirrors. The other two involve erotic asphyxiation with, again, one episode in which the man wants to partially asphyxiate a female and the other in which a man is a recipient. Other sexual acts and interests are involved in some of the scenarios. As I mentioned, is quite graphic but I wouldn´t say it´s hardcore porn.
In itself, the movie is quite bland. Nothing to say about the photography or editing and we never get to know why Ai, a girl that is super sad or partially sad and looks so embarrassed over pretty much everything, does what she does.It all gets more interesting with the introduction of Saki. Another prostitute specialized in masochism, painfully gorgeous and painfully addicted to heroin. The scene where they are together, doing drugs all night and Saki does a little karaoke session to a vibrator while shooting heroin in the meanwhile, is both comic and tragic and the scene where Ai leaves after tenderly cleaning the blood on Saki´s arm after another shoot is quite sad and beautiful. I´m not even going to detail the scene where they meet. Let´s just say Saki is a very efficient mistress and probably would be a better character to explore as it seems her backstory is richer.
The movie ends with Ai trying to break and enter her former lover home under the influence of an unknown drug, after walking for what it seems a whole day, being caught by the police and saved by a crazy singer she met earlier. She realizes she´s lost in a deviant and lunatic world, cries her little, shy heart out and goes back to whoring.
So, here it is. Not the usual movie I would watch and review but I was curious about it and since I have a penchant for kinky...
Not a great one but it´s entertaining enough.
