Women of the Night - Butterfly Flower (1969)
A flower is a woman or a man is a butterfly... Love and melancholy bloom wildly in the nighttime garden! This is a moody entertainment work depicting the love, laughter, melancholy, and human drama of an iron-fisted daughter of a family of expositors who, after her father's death, disbanded her gang and moved to Tokyo by herself, where she becomes a hostess and demonstrates her natural chivalrous temperament, risking her life in the neon-lit Ginza district.
