What happens

Daydream (Japanese: 白日夢, Hepburn: Hakujitsumu) is a 1964 Japanese pink film. It was the first erotic film to have a big budget and a mainstream release in Japan, and was shown at the Venice Film Festival and given two releases in the United States. Director Tetsuji Takechi remade the film in hardcore versions in 1981 and 1987. Both of these remakes starred actress Kyōko Aizome. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
