The film is based on Hyakken Uchida's novel "The Disc of Sarasate", the plot of which is built around the gramophone recording of Pablo de Sarasate's violin composition Zigeunerweisen.
It is the first part of the Taisho Trilogy (Zigeunerweisen (1980), Kagero-za (1981) and Yumeji (1991).
The action takes place during the Taisho era (1912-1926)
Holidaying in a small seaside village, Aochi, a professor of German, rescues Nakasago, his former colleague. Togo is pursued by an angry mob, accusing him of seducing and killing a fisherman's wife. The police intervene in the case, but Aochi vouchs for the friend, preventing his arrest. In connection with the meeting, a dinner is arranged, during which they dance geisha O-Ine, who has just buried her brother. Six months later, Aochi visits a friend and is shocked to discover that his wife, who comes from a decent family, looks like two drops of water. .
Infused with decadence and nihilism, "Gypsy Motives" is a story about people, overwhelmed by their own fears and desires, who are connected by invisible threads of fate.
The film is primarily based on Aochi, played by Toshiya Fujita (known to many as the director of Lady Snowblood 1 and 2).
The Japanese Academy in 1981 nominated the film in 9 categories, won in four, including "best film" and "best director". He also received Kinema Junpo Awards, Yokohama Film Festival, Blue Ribbon Awards, Hochi Film Awards, Mainichi Film Concurs, Berlin International Film Festival.
Film critics recognized it as the best Japanese film of the 80s. close
