Ai no shinsekai

Rei works at night in an SM club. Her customers, mainly pretty old men, pay a lot of money to be tortured and humiliated. They call her ‘Your highness’ and, even though she doesn’t fuck them, she realises all their dreams. During the day she works as an actress in a small theatre group, that is really supported by Rei’s nocturnal income. In this group too she fulfils many sexual needs. One night Rei bumps into Ayumi, a young whore on her way to see a customer in a love-hotel. The beautiful Ayumi is saving all her money to marry a man from a good family. The two start spending more and more time together. : ‘Girls who work in the sex industry are much more forward than I thought. During our encounters, I felt a certain culture shock; there was no sombre mood, but a very cheerful and “light” one, as with real bon vivants. You felt they were creating a world full of intimacy and love.’
