Midori
The camelia girl.
Directed by Hiroshi Harada
Produced by Kiryûkan
A deeply disturbing, surreal descent into exploitation and trauma that uses grotesque imagery and ambiguous narrative to confront the darkest aspects of human predation and suffering.
After losing her parents, young flower selling Midori is put up by a fairground group. She is abused and forced to slavery, until the arrival of an enigmatic magician of short stature, who gives her hope for a better future.
