action

Tachikawa in the present. The cool and taciturn Mako is the leader of the Alleycats , a female youth gang that moves beyond morality and law. The day of the girl gang with no prospects is marked by various criminal offenses, often accompanied by the brutal use of force. The offenders spend the evening with drugs and sex together with the Eagles - a friendly group of male lawbreakers - in dim nightclubs. The petite Maku loves the traumatized Boss of the Eagles, Baron, with whom she has a loose relationship, even though her desire for physical closeness and sexuality remains unfulfilled. Baron has suffered from sexual dysfunction since childhood , once caused by the abuse of his sister, which he had to witness helplessly. She was once raped by men of ethnic origin. Since then, Baron has been an abysmal racist with an irrepressible hatred of all non-thoroughbred Japanese in the city.

When one day Baron's loyal companion Susumu, a gang member of the Eagles, feels robbed of his Alleycat friend Mari, who prefers him a hybrid named Ichirō, Baron's boundless hatred of his declared “enemy images” is rekindled. The Eagles then look for Ichirō, who leaves the city intimidated after severe abuse. Shortly afterwards, a real hunt for all half-bloods begins, which is accompanied by discrimination and displacement. When the humiliated Mari was furious and attacked the xenophobic baron with a knife, the situation worsened for the alleycats. Baron's misogyny is initially not recognizable. That changes, however, when Maku decides to help the 21-year-old newcomer Kazuma, a half-Japanese, half-African-American, in the search for his missing sister Megumi. Maku finally falls in love with the stranger - much to the displeasure of the jealous baron, who claims the beauty for himself. The xenophobia sparked a gang war with the alleycats and sold the women who had been made compliant with drugs to wealthy foreigners. Maku escapes this fate. She separates from Baron and ultimately saves her subordinates from mass rape.

Meanwhile, Kazuma succeeds in finding his sister Megumi, who initially denies she is the one he is looking for. At some point, however, she reveals herself to be Baron's henchmen, whereupon Megumi is brutally raped. In this situation, Susumu breaks away from his boss Baron because - as the viewer only now learns - he too is a mixed breed. The angry baron then murders his old companion from behind. Then he faces an armed Kazuma in a duel. The half-Japanese kills his rival in a duel, although he is also critically wounded. In the end, Kazuma shoots his half-sister Megumi, who runs towards him. The motives remain in the dark. Then he falls to the ground and dies - in front of the stunned Maku.

Reviews

The VideoWoche judges that the "comparatively harmless Japanese exploitation film" was optically inspired by Seijun Suzuki and represented a "string of beating orgies" .
