This film is part of the "Silk and Bullets: The Sisterhoods of Revenge" season at the Prince Charles Cinema. Full details here. The season brings together four female revenge tales spanning the decades from the 60s to the 90s. Cinematic boundaries blur as the French New Wave merges with Hitchcock-esque suspense, alongside a Japanese pinky violence extravaganza, an audacious Hong Kong psychological thriller gem, and a standout US cult classic. Going beyond the complexities of sex exploitation, the films vividly portray the transformation of female protagonists, resonating with the strength of resilience and empowerment. In tonight’s film the central character is left temporarily blind after an operation. On the second day, her husband takes off to Macau for a few days. Soon afterwards a former patient shows up, with sinister motives.
