Flower & Snake II Page #3

Synopsis: Tooyama, an aging impotent art critic, sends his much-younger wife, Shizuko, to Paris to evaluate the work of Ikegami, an artist he sponsors. She discovers she's curious about sado-masochism, and soon she becomes Ikegami's object of bondage as well as his muse. Encounters with Ikegami lead her into a shadowy world of wealthy patrons of ropes, humiliation, and slavery. Ikegami discovers his protective side, and Tooyama reenters the picture. Once Shizuko can reestablish control over her life, she can make a choice.

What about my brother's painting?

Please.

He painted it for us...

and so we will buy it.

On the phone you said...

Black market.

My brother spoke

with the owner of my club...

He has a chateau, and says he can...

sell the picture.

Erotic art.

It's tonight.

That's OK.

Who you decide to sell...

the picture to is up to you two.

Fair enough.

Don't you care about my brother?

The auction's just for private buyers.

They won't let me in.

I'm doing it for my brother,

but it's dangerous.

Dangerous?

Come in.

I'll take it.

Invitation?

Here.

Come in.

Ladies and Gentlemen.

Ten million!

Any other bids?

Do I not hear more?

What is this?

Do I not hear more?

No more?

More?

Stop!

Sold for 50 million!

We have a surprise for all our buyers.

Ten new items are available

in a special auction!

We must withhold the name of privacy...

but a recently deceased

famous Japanese artist...

left these ten unique pictures.

CG-rendered without a signature.

The first is titled...

"Peeled Shrimp Contortions"

Ten million!

I don't believe it!

Bidding starts at 10 million!

I have 30.

No more bids?

Wait!

No!

That is Ryosuke Ikegami's picture!

He's not dead, he's still 35!

This is the original.

What proof do you have this is fake?

It's a copy!

This is worth more than 50 million!

Ikegami, you say?

Never heard of him.

He's a genius. The man of tomorrow.

So there is no point in bidding?

Do you not have an eye

to tell the real from the false?

If you do,

then you should be able to recognize it!

I have no eye to discern...?

Very well.

I imagined trouble like this...

I have a letter from the seller.

Taking into account claims of forgery...

I invited the model here.

Her name is Shizuko.

With the lady's permission, we will do...

a reenactment,

examining Ms. Shizuko's genitals...

to compare the real thing

with the picture...

and judge which is the real one.

So...

Is Ms. Shizuko with us?

Shizuko!

Where are you?

Shizuko!

Where are you?

It's me.

Very well.

First we will compare the genitals...

with those of the girl...

in the catalogue.

Please...

undress.

What?

You want to prove your point?

Don't touch me!

Alright!

But if the oil painting is the real one...

you must promise...

to buy Ikegami's work

at the highest price!

Agreed.

We bid 10 million.

But, if your picture is the fake one,

you will be...

guilty of befouling our 1000 years

of tradition here.

As compensation, you must agree...

to model in the pose of all the pictures...

so that our clients can see that you are...

the pictured person.

What do you say?

Fine.

Very well, let us begin.

Step up.

With that...

undress for us.

Alright! I'll undress.

That's no good.

Turn your butt out.

I will examine the evidence.

The painter...

was faithful to form...

color...

internal areas...

and hair growth... in minute detail.

We must examine all these points!

Some light so we can see clearly.

Don't move.

I don't want to hurt you, but...

Stop it!

So what's the result?

Yours is the fake!

So now you must do as you promised.

What? Prove it!

Look over there...

at the mole.

Like the picture, you have a...

small mole just here.

The picture you brought

has no such mark.

Take a look at your mole.

Quiet!

Witch!

What are you after?

You're quite something.

Sullying our market.

Are you ready?

Come here!

You'll have...

some fun now!

Up, get them up!

This is a mistake!

compare the two.

"Peeled Shrimp Contortions"

No more bids?

No!

Open up!

Let us look at you!

Spread them!

Not enough?

Here!

Up!

Wider...

Can you move now?

Suffering?

Do it!

Let it out!

Now!

The second work is now complete!

No more bids?

A book tells us...

that witches used to do it

with metal penises.

This one is a true masterpiece!

But you said that I couldn't tell...

a real one from a fake!

A lie deserves punishment!

So you will model this one for us!

Now...

The third piece!

"Study in Clockwork!"

No!

Stop!

Leave her!

Stop doing this to her!

Who are you? Are you invited?

The blond woman invited me.

Shizuko fell into my trap!

That picture...

is a copy my brother made

from the internet.

It's a fake.

So...

you are right.

I'm sorry for this, but...

don't hurt her again.

Please.

Please.

Quiet!

So, we continue with the auction.

"Study in Clockwork!"

Two-shot version...

bidding from 100 million!

Move.

Move!

No!

Wait!

Help!

Move.

Let them go!

Move.

Both of them!

Where's Toyama?

No!

Stop!

Now I get it.

Where are you?

Give me Shizuko!

Toyama!

Where are you?

Shizuko is mine!

It's okay.

It's okay now.

I'm sorry.

You made a deal with...

the devil?

Forgive me.

I don't want...

anything now.

No fame...

or fortune.

Forgive me.

I understand.

If you wanted...

to get a name for yourself in exchange...

for that picture...

of me...

I don't mind.

How much...

did you receive?

Hey!

Can you hear?

I don't want anything!

Instead...

give me Shizuko!

You forced me to do these things...

and watched everything. Satisfied now?

Please...

give her to me!

That's it.

Please.

It's from his personal things...

Oh.

You...?

The innocent lambs.

I made them do it... this double glass.

The picture here...

is the one...

he actually painted in one night.

I won't show it to anyone

but just look at it myself.

You devil!

What kind of sick person are you?

Stop it!

Move away!

You're sick. Do you even love her?

I would take care of her.

Say something!

Stop it!

Don't hit him!

Don't hit my special person!

I wanted to do this...

before I die.

Don't say that.

Shizuko...

I wanted to...

discover something new.

But the price...

was too high.

It's fin e.

Don't speak anymore!

Not anymore.

Come over.

This is your homecoming exhibition.

This recreates your Paris apartment?

Yes.

You painted this art in such a dirty room?

It was dirtier then.

Who was your model?

My sister.

Really?

Sayoko?

This is Sayoko.

Hello.

Didn't you clash with Dr. Oikawa?

No, he was a fine man

I respected very much.

But all this was due to

the late Mr. Toyama.

Really?
