Masaki KOBAYASHI (I) 小林 正樹
上意討ちー拝領妻始末ー
Nippon Retro ²
All samurai Isaburo longs for is a wife for his son, grandchildren, and his own retirement. Enduring a loveless marriage and performing menial tasks to uphold the status of his family, he is surprised when a forced marriage between his son and his lord’s former mistress engenders genuine affection. But then an order from his lord threatens the happy couple. In somber, recurring sets and with precise visual symbolism, Masaki KOBAYASHI paints a tragedy about humanity in a tyrannic system.
