Femmes de Yakuza

The wife of a currently imprisoned boss of an influential clique of the Yakuza. A wife who, in his absence, runs the business well and keeps an eye on the partners of imprisoned “employees" to make sure they don’t go wild or suffer hardship. However, when the “main godfather" dies, an internal fight for power breaks out between separate cliques, in which her husband would have been a favorite. So she decides to start actively playing a dirty game full of intimidation and intrigue... There is very little to fault about this storyline, but for incomprehensible reasons, this shares the screen with equally long footage with her younger sister’s “Montague-Capulet" storyline. And this is a dime-a-dozen storyline where the main protagonist is unpleasant and occasionally even annoying. And these are words that I never imagined I would use with about a Hideo Gosha movie.
