On Episode 205 of Floating Through Film, we're coming back to our FTF Theory series to not only review Oshima's controversial 1976 film In the Realm of the Senses, but to also talk about it in connection to the essay he wrote about the film, "Theory of Experimental Pornographic Film". This was an interesting discussion to have, and Oshima's thoughts really helped framed our own. We hope you enjoy!
