Description: Perhaps one of the most erotic and at the same time inconceivably profound dramas of all-consuming, beyond the control passion between a young Japanese woman Sadoi (Tatsuya Fuji, who also starred in Empire of Passion and Female Market: Imprisonment) and her master, whom she kills at the end, cutting off his penis. Most interesting is that the film is based on real events. Four days went Garden with penis cut off through the streets of Tokyo, where she was arrested, she beamed with happiness. Her trial has shaken the whole of Japan, it showed leniency, and she was acquitted, a strange thing popularity. It happened in 1936 in a year.
