Plot: A Simple housewife is not receiving sexual gratification from her always tired workaholic husband. She comes to know that her neighbor is a sex-crazed maniac with roving eyes. When he targets her to fulfill his perverted fantasies, will she with her inner strength from her morals, stay faithful and loyal to her hardworking husband? Would this turn out to be a great iconic Japanese family drama classic involving a hardworking husband and a virtuous, pure wife and her test of faith?... Nah, not really.

About the Characters:
Nozomi Tanihara: She is a much older actress and was 40 when the movie was made. She has the perfect "housewife next door" looks. She is modestly pretty, does not look like an actress and certainly not like a porn star, very far from it. You may visit Japan and she might just be walking by and you would not even notice. Hence she is 10/10 suited to play this typical middle-class housewife role. The director has ensured that there are plenty of scenes where she is performing daily chores that any housewife does. Her behavior towards her husband and others are shown to be assuredly graceful and mannered.

Someto Mitsugi: It's not easy to find the names of male actors in these movies. I believe that the main protagonist and the villain of the movie is played by Someto, but I am not sure of the name. With his crooked smile and menacing looks, he plays the perfect lonely sex-crazed neighbor who can kidnap vulnerable ladies and keep them as sex slaves.

Review:
The movie starts with the husband going off to work and the wife going back to her daily chores. The villain, Someto is also introduced at this point, knocking on his door as his GF has gotten fed up of him and shut him out. During her work, Nozomi starts hearing sounds from the neighbor as they share a common wall. The voices sound like people having sex. Later that day, she meets Someto's GF and invites her for tea. The GF reveals that Someto is a sex-crazed maniac.

Nozomi's husband comes home tired from work and he sleeps it off. The scene is shown such that it seems like his daily habit. Nozomi, once again disappointed, goes to sleep. The next day she hears the voices and goes to the neighbor's home and knocks. When he opens the door, she asks if his GF is there, she wants to meet her. At which point, he takes her into his drawing room and it is revealed that he was watching a porno movie and there was no one else but him in the apartment.

Nozomi tries to leave, but Someto grabs her and thoroughly rapes her.

Later that night, she is shown deep in thought, thinking over the events of the day. She is interrupted by her husband coming home. The next day, the usual routine follows with the husband off to work and she goes back to her chores. However, this time too, she hears noises from the other side of the wall. The continuous noises of orgasms and sex talk make her excited and she masturbates. This time, however, on the other side of the wall, Someto is listening too.

After masturbation, Nozomi tidies her dress and goes out to shop, but is quickly snatched by Someto, who takes her into his flat and rapes her again. This time, he uses bondage-themed sex, takes pictures of her on his mobile phone and also puts her on a leash and makes her crawl on all fours. There are what looks like instructions that he passes on to her, which seems like he is training her to be a good slave.

That night, as it is every day, the husband goes to sleep. Nozomi receives a message; it is her naked pic that was clicked by Someto. She looks at her husband, he is sound asleep, then she takes a look back at the picture. "Is the life of loneliness in the name of loyalty a worthy cause?"

The answer to this is the next day when Nozomi has let go of all her inhibitions and shame. She is now on a leash and crawling on all fours behind Someto. He humiliates her by making her bark like a dog, even pee on the carpet. Nozomi obediently does all that she is told to. She is now completely gone off the other end and loves being the submissive slut.

Later that night, she gets a surprise when her very drunk husband is brought inside by Someto. I did not understand the conversation that much, but I believe that Someto befriended him and got him drunk. Nozomi does not like this, as her expressions tell, but she tolerates it and the trio sit at the table. Someto intentionally pours more and more beer into the husband's glass, while Nozomi watches and says nothing. The already drunk husband soon passes out and Someto grabs Nozomi and has sex with her on the table and later at his place.

The final scene is where Nozomi is fully under the spell of Someto. The husband leaves for office and Someto takes Nozomi on a lease and takes her to his apartment to have sex. His former GF bangs on his door, apparently she has a change of heart, but these two don't care anymore.
