Horror, Timeless
Based on a true story from the early 1900’s. A man and his servant begin an affair, turning into an obsession so strong it has them forsake everything else, including life itself. In the Realm of the Senses is a story of mad obsession, sexual tension and violent terror.
Highly controversial at its first release, the film was initially prevented from Japanese release. Putting France as the main production country allowed it however, though censored. In the Realm of the Senses remains one of the world cinema classics of the 70’s erotic thrillers.
