Movie Description
This trilogy of films from director Hiroshi Teshigahara showcase his enigmatic style, atmospheric visuals, and philosophical depth.
PITFALL, Teshigahara's feature debut, follows a downtrodden miner and his son as they travel through a series of surreal landscapes, pursued by a mysterious stranger in a white suit.
Based on the novel by Kobo Abe, WOMAN IN THE DUNES tells the story of a Japanese entomologist held prisoner in a sand pit with an alluring woman. Little by little, the scientist develops an intense bond with his female companion and resigns himself to an eternity of hypnotic routine.
