Synopsis
Origin
1896. Left behind in the family manor, young Mary plays hide and seek with the servant, Beth. But as the game unfolds, she realises Beth isn’t the only one searching for her… Something else is lurking in the dark. And it’s ready to play.
Sada
On 17 May 1936–during a period of war, economic depression, public unease and growing militarism, a time of unrest and confusion when public opinion was, at best, unpredictable–Sada Abe killed and emasculated her lover. Condemned by the law, Sada finds herself lionised by the press and hailed as a 'saint' of love. Because hers was a crime of passion, the purity of her motivation elevates her from criminal to heroine.
