猟人日記
Nippon Retro ²
Businessman Ichiro is a notorious womanizer. He has lost all interest for his wife, but considers the seduction of young women as a kind of sport, writing a diary about his amorous achievements. Yet one day, the tables seem to have turned: more and more of his lovers mysteriously turn up dead. With Ichiro soon being made out as the main suspect, he is arrested and convicted. Has he himself become the victim of an intrigue? Is there someone set out for revenge? Adapting the novel by Masako TOGAWA, who plays the role of the betrayed wife, NAKAHIRA created a gripping and nightmarish suspense drama.
