PLAY IT COOL

Yasuzo Masumura, Japan, 1970, Arrow Films, Arthouse

From Yasuzō Masumura (GIANTS AND TOYS, RED ANGEL), PLAY IT COOL is a chic, erotically-charged drama starring popular Japanese singer Mari Atsumi as a college girl finding her way through Tokyo's male-dominated hierarchies and a seductive, treacherous nightclub culture. Desperate for money, young fashion student Yumi takes on her mother’s old position as a geisha girl and grows adept at navigating a world that views her purely as an object of desire. Then one day, a rescue by the handsome Nozawa from a vicious gangster offers Yumi an escape into a much glitzier world, albeit one fraught with similar dangers.
