Extreme Private Eros: Love Song 1974 Blu-ray

British label Second Run is preparing a Blu-ray release of Kazuo Hara's Extreme Private Eros: Love Song 1974. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on April 20.

Description: From the director of the renowned, controversial documentary The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On, Kazuo Hara's intensely personal - and equally controversial - film Extreme Private Eros: Love Song 1974 is a detached, radical examination of the interplay between the director and subject.

In order to maintain contact with his former partner, Miyuki, Hara shot this raw, intimate film as a way to both maintain a connection with her and to make sense of their complex relationship.

Shocking and uncompromising, Extreme Private Eros explodes the boundaries of documentary filmmaking to create a stunningly candid portrait of an independent woman living on her own terms, and Hara's own struggle to accept her rejection.
