Key 1997

Soichiro Anzai (played by Akira Emoto), an art professor who teaches at a university, is getting older and feels exhausted. He lamented the beauty of his wife Ikuko (Nami Kawashima), but was dissatisfied with the boring sex life and his own weakness. The couple accidentally met the young and handsome photographer Kimura Kenichi (played by Osawa Shuo). A brief conversation between his wife and Kimura made Anzai feel a little jealous, which also gave him the illusion of rejuvenating his youth. Since then, Anxi began a dangerous attempt. He deliberately invited Kimura to his home as a guest, and tried to feel the strong jealousy from his wife's ambiguity with Kimura. At the same time, he wrote his true thoughts in a private diary and deliberately let Ikuko see it. The faint longing for Kimura made Ikuko feel the pleasure she had never experienced before from her husband. The couple goes farther and farther for ultimate happiness... This film is adapted from the original work of the same name by the Japanese sensual writer Junichiro Tanizaki.
