00:00Onna. Onna. That's how we Japanese say, beautiful woman.
00:07This is what happened when 50,000 G.I. Joe met Onna.
00:14Hundreds like Onna.
00:17And turned Tokyo into a gate of flesh.
00:25Our story begins at the end of World War II.
00:29The American conquerors find wild, ravenous creatures.
00:34Thinly disguised as men and women.
00:36Roaming the streets of the once proud city of Tokyo.
00:40Selling body and soul, merely to go on living.
00:44Onna, millions like Onna, suffered most.
00:49For thousands of years, Onna has known only to serve her master, man.
00:54To fulfill their emotional and physical demands.
00:58Let's go to the hotel, come on.
01:01Come on, let's go to the hotel.
01:02I've got plenty of money, I can buy anything.
01:04Anything.
01:06Anything.
01:07Onna has no status.
01:09Onna, there's not even hope for the security of love.
01:14We, the girls like Onna, had to band together to survive.
01:20Love was forbidden, except love for sale.
01:25We knew the rules and the penalty.
01:28Merciless, cruel, horrible, unforgettable.
01:35Do girls like these ever escape from their unholy bondage?
01:40Become human?
01:42Live?
01:44Love?
01:45Feel like women again?
01:48The boldest movie ever, says the Los Angeles Times.
01:53Gate of Flesh.
01:55In cinemascope and raisin color.
01:58Recommended for adults only.
