Zigeunerweisen

Set in a 1920's Japan saturated with decadence and nihilism, Zigeunerweisen is a tale of a disparate quartet drawn together by unseen strings of fate - and nearly driven mad by their own fears and desires. Aochi, a Japanese professor of German, vacations in a seaside town and discovers Nakasao, a former classmate, full-time vagabond - and suspected serial killer. During their reunion, they both fall hard for the beautiful geisha Koine. But when Nakasago marries - and abandons - eerie Koine-look-alike Sono, the men's mutual obsession for Koine escalates into paranoia and treachery spiked with undercurrents of witchcraft and the sinister presence of supernatural denizens.
