In the year 1972 a small group of left-wing students are living at a dingy apartment in the mountain village of Karuizawa in Nagano-ken, Japan. While the group leader, Aizawa, waits to be released from prison his promiscuous girlfriend, Masami, is left in charge. While waiting for Aizawa's release, Masami uses her overt sexuality and engages in promiscuity with the fellow students. As the days pass by things take a tragic turn. Within a few days of his release the group's leader commits hara-kiri. After learning of Aizawa's suicide, the shotgun toting Masami loses control and the group quickly falls into self-destruction as sex, distrust, paranoia, and violence overtakes them.[1]
