this film be about a japanese woman who have an obsession with calligraphy on skin . the plot be absolutely bizarre . i fail to see any sensual or erotic undertone . the plot turn an ancient art form into a fetishistic pornography . in addition and the scene that be film in hong kong be certainly portray bad part of hong kong and such a the airport in the middle of the city and poor living condition and noise pollution . throughout the whole film and i keep think that the pillow book be insult the japanese culture and the hong kong environment . the pillow book be a perverted and yet boring film . seriously stay away from it .
