YesAsia Editorial Description

Based on Kanehara Hitomi's Akutagawa-winning novel, Snakes and Earrings (a.k.a. Hebi ni Piasu) jumps into the piercing world of body modification and youth degeneration. Up-and-coming actress Yoshitaka Yuriko (Noriko's Dinner Table, Adrift in Tokyo) gives a brave performance as a young woman increasingly lost in pain and desolation opposite ARATA (Ping Pong) and Kora Kengo (M). Intense and unflinching in its portrayal of body mod and S&M, Snakes and Earrings is the first feature from legendary theater director Ninagawa Yukio, best known for his Shakespeare productions. Also look for appearances from Fujiwara Tatsuya (Death Note), Oguri Shun (Crows: Episode 0), and Karasawa Toshiaki (20th Century Boys).

Looking for thrills, 19-year-old Lui (Yoshitaka Yuriko) moves in with her new boyfriend Ama (Kora Kengo), a pierced and tattooed guy she met at a nightclub. Through Ama, Lui meets sadistic tattoo artist and body piercer Shiba (ARATA), whom she strikes up a relationship with in exchange for body modifications. Floating between the two men, she finds herself falling into a downward spiral of violence, sadomasochism, and alcoholism.

This edition comes with making of, deleted scenes, and previews.

19歳のルイは、蛇系の舌に顔面ピアス、背中に龍の刺青を入れた男・アマと付き合っていた。その一方で、ルイはアマの紹介で知り合ったサディストの彫り師・シバとも関係を持ち始める。みずからの舌にピアスを開け、背中に龍と麒麟の刺青を彫るなど、まるで突き動かされるように身体改造にはまり込んでいくルイ。2人の男から2種の愛を受け、痛みと快楽に身をゆだねていくルイだが…。
