This movie begins with a young woman named "Ruriko Aoki" (Miki Sugimoto) running away from several men who are chasing her throughout a large city in Japan. As it turns out, these men work for the police and upon catching her they subsequently take her back to the reform school she had just escaped from. However, what nobody on the outside realizes is that this particular reform school is illegally operated more like to a prison than an actual rehabilitative facility. Yet rather than curtailing his approach when faced with multiple complaints, the warden becomes even more cruel and spiteful. And this has the effect of actually encouraging more women to join Ruriko in her next attempt at freedom. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a fairly entertaining "pinku eiga" film which--surprisingly enough for that particular sub-genre--managed to flow rather smoothly from one scene to another. Additionally, having two attractive actresses like Fujika Omori (as "Yuki Hiroto") and the aforementioned Miki Sugimoto certainly didn't hurt in any way. In any case, I enjoyed this particular film and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
