Directed by Isao Yukisada

Synopsis
A modern take on the “Roman Porno” genre from director Isao Yukisada, Aroused by Gymnopedies is “an engaging and ultimately touching portrait of love, loneliness and loss of youth” (Variety).
Shinji, a middle-aged film director, finds himself in a period of creative crisis and self-destruction. After his failure making art films, he now finds himself shooting low-budget pornography as a means to get by. Across the span of one week, he embarks on a series of sexual encounters that put his work, relationships, and happiness in jeopardy.
