"NIKKATSU CORPORATION" "BLUE RAIN OSAKA" "Aku cinta padamu!" "Mama, kami di sini!" " Selamat malam." "Dia akan mengurusmu demi aku." "Kau tetap bersamaku!" "Duduklah di sini." "Maafkan ketidak hadiranku." "He's one of your best clients." "Teach him the art of seduction." "I'll teach you." "Either you chose the most beautiful or the most discreet in the bar." "You don't say!" "Clients usually don't have the courage to talk to the most beautiful one." "And they also never notice the most discreet one." "So they end up always alone." "And here's your chance." "She's right." "In that case, I'll try to seduce you." "Am I the most beautiful here?" "What about Yorino?" "He has an eye on mama." "Don't say that!" "He's blushing all over." "She's joking." " Good night." " See you tomorrow." " Let's go back together." " Alright." "Wait, Tomo and Mitsu." "Don't eat appetizers before the clients." " But he let me." " You should refuse." "And you, Mitsu, stop behaving like a prima donna." "It's bad for our image." "Mama, it's Mr. Horino." "You can go now." "She's harsh." "Hello?" "Thank you for bringing new clients." "I just dropped them off at the hotel." "I'm at Minami's." "Do you want to come?" "Yes, with pleasure." "Oh, wait." "I have to meet my sister." "Your sister?" "Sorry I had forgotten." "No, I am the one who should've warned you sooner." "By the way, Machiko, have you thought, about my marriage proposal?" "I am flattered, but I'm afraid I can't accept it." "Don't talk like that." "I'm very serious." "Please think about it carefully." "It's your turn, Yorino." "Hurry up!" "We'll talk about it another day, face to face." "See you." " See you tomorrow." " Miyuki." "You're still living with your boyfriend?" "You have some debts lately." "What's wrong?" "It's nothing." "Don't worry." "Alright, but if you have any problem, tell me about it." "Thanks." "Were you waiting?" "Not at all." "I was listening to that Boiled Egg album this afternoon." " Where did you find that old thing?" " In an old box in the back of the store." " Do you remember it?" " It's cheesy." "That group was right to break-up." "Who cares?" "What are you doing?" "I'm erasing the make-up traces." "Your girl could notice them." "I have no one else but you." "So, am I dating someone who doesn't attract girls?" "No, wait!" "I have to take a shower." "Okay?" "It's not necessary." "Don't be impatient." "Are you already hard?" " Good morning." " Good morning, sister." "Come in." "Don't rip off your eyebrows like that." "Why?" "When you do it wrong, it speeds up the apparition of wrinkles." "Is that true?" "My eyebrows are thick because of my hormone imbalance." "Nothing can be done." "That story again!" "Machiko..." "Yesterday night, you were with some boy again..." "Surely, I'm not forbidding you from having fun." "But never fall in love." "I know." "I was happy with the bar that my lover had bought for me." "And then, I fell ill." "Ever since I entrusted that to you, I've been bored." "How is your lover doing?" "He's fine." "I'm going to collect some money." " I made lunch." " I have more than 10 clients to meet." "Really?" "Right now, I'm at Nakoshima." "I'm sorry to bother you." "I'll be waiting for you." " Here you go." " Thanks, Isao." " Are you having fun?" " It's great." " Hey, Mama!" " Mr. Hasegawa." "How do you do?" "What are you doing here?" "You have a meeting?" "Still living large!" "Hi!" "It's been a long time." "Hello." " It's you, Satsuki?" " Do you know each other?" "We are old friends." "It's been three years." "What have you been up to?" " Are you a photographer?" " Exactly." " Take a picture of me." " Not you." " His photos have been published." " Let me see." "His photos are hard to find." "Wait a bit for me." "Good evening." "You are welcome here." " We're here as promised." " Thank you." "Look, mama." "It's beautiful." "Satsuki, you're really beautiful." "I was once cute and young like her." " Yeah, right!" " You're mean!" "In any case, it's a splendid work." "Thank you." "Mama, you've worked in a circus before, right?" " You told him, Mr. Saiga?" " It was me." "So, it's true." "I always thought that you had this job in your veins." "Mama is really talented, huh?" "You can't find someone like me in all Osaka." "Such self-confidence!" "I already saw you having sex with Yuji." "Satsuki, don't talk about my past life like that!" "I'm going to blush with embarrassment." "Mr. Saiga did you come to Osaka for business?" "With Mr. Hasegawa?" "We have a meeting with my company." "We're going to publish a photo book of african rituals." " He's going to Africa." " Africa?" "It's an amazing job." "After living in a circus," "I want to take photos, of the wild life in the savannah." "I'm going with him." "I also want to go." "Everybody, let's go to Africa!" "Your publishing company could arrange that." "Okay!" "I'll take care of it!" "But everyone should pay their ticket." " You're taking care of what, then?" " Of you, my dears." "Let's make a toast." " Alright." " Let's drink." "To Mr. Saiga's success on his next book!" " Cheers!" " Cheers!" "See you soon." "Mr. Saiga?" "I had a great time." "Is that all?" "I don't want to see you anymore." "Good night." "What are you doing?" "Meet me tomorrow." "I'll wait at the harbor at 12.00 AM." "The harbor of our memories." "I won't go." "I have something to show you." "A wound." "Understand?" "Tomorrow at 12 AM, ok?" "Who was that guy?" "The one who left in the car." " Who are you talking about?" " The one who kissed you." "Isao..." "You should think about your work instead." "Why do you sleep with me then?" "What's he to you?" " How many men did you sleep with?" " Isao!" "I love you, Machiko!" "Can I go to your house tonight?" "Not tonight." "Are you thinking about her?" "What if I am?" "I can scream here." "I can spread my legs." "I can ascend to heavens." "The Time of Circus, Photos by Yuji Saiga" "Where are we going today?" "You can go out alone from time to time." "You have a meeting with her?" "Its' none of you business." "She won't show up." "Do you want to bet?" "Yuji." "I'll be back at night." "Perhaps." " Wait." "I'll go with you." " Not a chance." "See you." "You don't seem very well." "What's wrong?" "Yesterday, my lover said something terrible." "He said that sterile women are not real women anymore." "Why?" "Well, since I don't have a uterus, we don't have sex anymore." "It's not because my doctor forbid me to do it." "I just lost my desire." "I feel like I'm a monster." "Sister..." "My lover must have been horny." "He'll surely give the bar to another woman." "You shouldn't be worried." "But I'm afraid." "What will happen to us if we loose the bar?" "Do you have any idea?" "Do you?" "I don't even know what to think anymore." "You're the only one that I trust." "Sister." "Machiko." "You're still recuperating from your operation." "Come to the bar from time to time to clear your mind." "Alright?" "Hi!" "You're an hour late." "You remember?" "I told you I was sailing with a circus." "And you decided to go with me." "I was young and innocent." "I was too." "But that allowed you to make a career in photography." "Me, I was only a circus worker there." "It brought me nothing and it was a waste of time." "But we were living together." " You've changed." " You think so?" "Are you in love?" "Who knows?" "Do you have someone?" "What kind of guy is he?" "If he was born, our child would be 3 years old by now." "Eat." "It's delicious." "Machiko." "Let's go to your house." "Don't say foolish things." "My wound." "You still haven't seen it." "You've came here to see it, right?" "Idiot!" " Mr. Driver." " Yeah?" " Drive me to a fancy place." " Let's see." "What's a fancy place?" "I don't know any." "A place where people go." "I thought your scar was bigger." "When I saw you with another woman, I was furious." "I was hurt." "It's a little wound." "Machiko." "Are you shaking?" "Shit." "Yuji." "Welcome." "I saw you yesterday in Moe bar." "You were with a man." "Who are you?" "What's your relationship with Machiko?" "Right now, Machiko is fucking in a hotel." "Are you mad?" "Come with me to Africa, Machiko." "I'll stay there three years maybe." "I need someone to support me." "You really have some nerve." "Why is that?" "After that circus scam, now you plan to do the same with Africa?" "You're talking exactly like you did five years ago." "I thought you were leaving with Satsuki." "I changed my mind after sleeping with you." "Don't talk so loud." "You were the one screaming." "And you made the sheets wet." "It's true." "It's been a while since I moaned so loud." "Thank you." "I still don't see why I should go with you." "Take care of Satsuki." "This bar wouldn't be the same without her." " Thank you." " Cheers." " Cheers." " Thanks!" "If you'll excuse me." " Mr. Sakai." " It's been a while, mama." " How have you been?" " I've completely recovered." "If you please." "Now, I'll be here every night." " Mama!" " I'm coming." "See you later, Miyuki." "Mr. Matsumoto." "Were you there?" "How have you been?" " Your sister has recovered." " Yes, thankfully." "Moe Bar, hello?" "On who's behalf?" "I'll go get her." "It's for you?" "I'll come back right away." "Machiko speaking." "It's me." "Sachiko is missing." "How so?" "She's hiding somewhere to tease me." "Are you drunk?" "Can you come here later?" " I can't get to sleep." " Pull yourself together." "Machiko." "Come with me." "It was him?" "How dare he phone us?" "Did you forget what he did to you?" "Of course not." "That's why I hung up." "I forbid you to see him." "Do you understand?" "Miyuki." "That reminds me of your rock phase." "I'm embarrassed." "Do you want to have a drink?" "I'm sorry, my boyfriend is waiting for me." "Is he good to you?" "He is crazy in love." "With me, he feels secure." "He says I make him feel all warm inside." "I don't have to worry about you, then." "What's wrong?" "I'm going to say it clearly." " Be my lover's mistress." " No way." "He's saving one of his apartments for you." "Here are the keys." "Don't get me wrong." "It was me who gave the idea." "That way, I won't be jealous." "He smiled when he accepted." "I'm sure he'll make you happy." "You have no right to decide for me." "You can't refuse." "Think about it." "You were living on my lover's money thanks to me." "Everything you have is because of me." "At least you should be thankful." "Uzaki speaking." "Yes, it's me." "What?" "Alright, I'll come right away." "Machiko!" "Miyuki is dead!" "What?" "The police wants me to identify her body." " Miyuki is dead?" " Please go." "I can't do it." "So, she worked in your bar?" "Yes." "Her partner is a life insurance salesman." "He had subscribed to many of his policies in order to increase his sales." "And he found himself running into debts." "This kind of double suicide is pretty common." "She didn't kill herself because of debts." "I'm sure of it." "There must be another reason." "Do you have any clue?" "You can't really understand." "It's you?" "What do you want?" "Nothing." " You wanted me to come." " Me?" "I never asked you to come." "I want sake!" "Sake!" "You already drank everything." "Did you come to humiliate me?" "Leave me alone." "I'm thirsty." "Why did you tear down these pictures?" "How can a simple bar hostess understand me?" "You understand nothing of my job." "You don't want to?" "Why did you come then?" "I don't want to." "I don't." "Machiko." "Let's go to Africa together." "You're still on that?" "You don't need a woman." "You're destined to work alone." "All alone." "You're incapable of sharing a life with a woman." "Shut up!" "I came to see you so we could leave the past behind." "Machiko" "Machiko!" "Don't leave me alone!" "Seeing each other again was a mistake." "Today is a lucky day for me." "I signed a big contract and I got your call." "I'm a lucky guy." " You're making too much of it!" " I'm serious." "You know?" "I'll be made CEO soon." "My father is going to retire." "I am what they call a spoiled kid." "So, I need a woman who has her feet on the ground." "Yorino..." "I was thinking." "I believe that..." "You don't have to give me an answer so quickly." "Oh, five colored beans!" "Don't you love them?" "It reminds me of my childhood." "Two bags, please." " I was always eating them." " I..." "I always lack something." "And it's never the same." "I'm a strange woman." "Good morning." "You're..." "Yuji is coming too." " Why?" " I called him." "Satsuki, stop!" "Back off." "What's the problem?" "Answer now." "Isao, tell him." "I decided to go live with Satsuki at the circus." "Isao!" "What's so funny?" "Where did you find him?" "Isao was this granny's lapdog." "She licked his sweet skin, and after, she fucked with you!" "Say something." "Was I only your toy?" "Are you fucking with everybody?" "Isao..." "She tries to look like a lady but underneath it all lies a dirty bitch!" "Let's get down to the facts." "You only want to see me jealous." "Let me go!" "Don't touch her!" "You bastard!" "Stop." " Stop." " You bitch!" " Stop!" " I hate you!" "Me too!" "You bitch!" "Say it again!" "Stupid Yuji." "You're hurting me!" "You're nothing but a tease." "And you're only a whore!" "Wait." "Stop!" "No!" "Go away!" "I hope you two die!" "When are you leaving?" "To Africa." "I'm going to Tokyo tomorrow so I can prepare everything." "In two weeks I'll be in Africa." "Tomorrow?" "Machiko." "Where were you?" "Sister." "Long time no see." "Explain yourself, Machiko." "You didn't learn my lesson." "Are you kidding me?" "Sister!" "Yorino just called." "He's waiting for you." "Go see him." " Come." " No!" "I don't want to." " Nobue..." " Leave us alone!" "Hurry up, Machiko!" " Let go of the knife." " Just go." "Go." "Yorino is waiting." "Sister?" "Sister!" "What's wrong?" "What's wrong, sister?" "Answer me!" "Don't worry." "It was just a hysterical reaction." "Nothing serious." "I gave her a tranquilizer." "Your sister has lost her uterus, right?" "It causes hormonal imbalance and anxiety crisis." "One more year or so and she'll return to normal." "But your sister should avoid psychological shocks." "She's mentally fragile by nature." "Yuji." "Yuji!" "I'm sorry." "I fell asleep." "I'm leaving." "Stay with me." "Yuji." "Yuji..." "I'm going to Africa with you." "I'll follow you." " I'm sorry." " Explain this." "I don't even know what to say." "Our sponsor canceled the project." " It can't be." "I had everything pre..." " Forgive me!" "Let's have a drink and calm down." "Let's forget this story with a big party." "How dare you?" "!" "I don't want to work with you anymore." "Mr. Saiga..." "Wait." "I have a meeting." "Go faster." "Look who we found!" " Oh, it's you!" " Wait, we'll have a good laugh." " Who cares?" " No." "He deserves a lesson." "Stupid!" "Get in front of him." " I'll knock you over!" " Just try it." "That's enough!" "Follow them." "You'll see!" "I'll catch them." "Speed up!" "Stupid." "Go, speed up!" " It's dangerous." " Do what you're told." "You idiot!" "Go to hell!" "Yuji is nothing but an idiot!" "Die!" "Stupid!" "You're an idiot!" "Die!" "What have you done?" "Sir?" " Satsuki." " Yuji!" "It hurts!"
