Trailer B
Everything in Asuka’s life was going according to
plan. Content with her job in the fish factory, she spends her nights
making preparations for her upcoming marriage to her boss, Taki. That
is until one day when she spots a mysterious creature emerging from a
lake near work. Asuka quickly realizes that it is Aoki, an old school
friend of hers who drowned at the age of 17 and has been reincarnated
as a kappa – a scaly, reptilian watersprite found in Japanese
folklore. There is an instant attraction, but reality sets in and soon
Asuka is going to great lengths to hide not only Aoki’s true identity,
but also their true feelings for each other.
Playfully riffing on the kappa mythology, UNDERWATER LOVE is not your
typical romantic comedy. Director Shinji Imaoka, a Fantastic Fest alum
(UNCLE'S PARADISE, 2007) and one of the legendary Seven Lucky Gods of
Pink, turns the popular Japanese softcore genre on its head. Employing
everything from musical numbers by the French-German group Stereo
Total, unforgettable sumo wrestling and necrophilia sequences and
slapstick hijinks worthy of a British farce, Imaoka culls together an
inventive cinematic experience that is as silly as it is sensual. Shot
by world-class cinematographer Christopher Doyle, the man responsible
for much of the iconic imagery of the Wong Kar-Wai films, UNDERWATER LOVE brings a level of visual ingenuity to pornographic cinema.
But fear not - for all of its innovation, UNDERWATER LOVE does not
disappoint in shock value. Reveling in the absurdity of kappa-human
copulation, Imaoka presents us with some outrageous sex scenes
involving aquatically enhanced genitalia that are sure to illicit a
strong audience response. Raunchy, hilarious and, at times, just down
right wrong, UNDERWATER LOVE is one naughty good time you won’t want
to miss out on.
