Japanese Poster For Sion Sono's GUILTY OF ROMANCE

The Japanese poster for Sion Sono's true-crime drama Guilty of Romance has been released. If nothing, it gives you a good look at the three main female characters in the film. 

Starting from top to bottom we have Miki Mizuno as Kazuko, the police officer investigating the grisly murders. Then Megumi Kagurazaka as Izumi, the neglected housewife who find new life in the adult entertainment industry. And Makoto Togashi as Mitsuko, a professor of literature who doubles as a street hooker at night.

And then there is one of the corpses at the bottom, the missing body parts having been replaced by pieces of mannequins. Nice. 

Set just before the turn of the 21st century, a grisly murder occurs in Maruyama-cho, Shibuya -- a love hotel district -- a woman was found dead in a derelict apartment in the pouring rain. Whilst the police investigate, the story interweaves with that of Izumi, the wife of a famous romantic novelist whose life seems just a daily repetition without romance. One day, to break away from the loveless monotony, she decides to follow her desires and accepts a job as a naked model faking sex in front of the camera. Soon she meets with a mentor and starts selling her body to strangers, whilst at home she hides behind the facade that she is still the wife she is supposed to be.
