What happens

『欲望に狂った愛獣たち』(よくぼうにくるったあいじゅうたち)は、山内大輔監督の日本映画。 高校にろくに通わず卒業した杏子は小説家志望の恋人を養うため、風俗で働いていた。しかし突然小説家志望の恋人は首を吊り、杏子は働く意味、生きる意味を見失う。心が病んだ杏子は3年間口説かれた男に「お前の世界を変えてやる」の口説き文句を信じ結婚。風俗から足を洗ったが、その男鵜飼は豪邸に住むものの嫁とメイドを家畜同然に扱うことで性的興奮を覚える狂気の性癖の持ち主だった。杏子はガラスの灰皿で殴打し鵜飼を殺害し、逃亡する。 行きついた先は春樹との思い出の部屋。そこには仲睦まじい兄妹、圭介とエリカが住んでいた。事故物件扱いで安くなった部屋に肩寄せ合って暮らしているとても優しい2人と接する杏子だったが、やがて杏子は2人が革命を起こそうと犯罪に手を染めていることを知るのだった。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
