CGiii Comment

A slappable Lolita, a miserable tattoo artist and a repugnant green wig...

The direction is just as bad as the acting...

Zero Chou is proving to be a director who is in possession of no directing talent whatsoever.

And...that 'no-talent' wins awards...did they see the same film?!?!

Or, what do we know!

The(ir) Blurb...

When Jade, a web-cam girl visits Takeko's tattoo studio she becomes entranced with the image of the spider lily and with Takeko as well. In order to get closer to the object of her desire, Jade asks Takeko to give her the same lily tattoo, challenging Takeko's monastic existence and opening up memories which threaten to tear the two women apart.
