Funeral
Procession of Roses
It's an art film, an exploitation film,
a Mondo movie, a drug movie all rolled into
one brilliant piece of work. It's the story
of Eddie, an exceptionally beautiful transvestite
and one of the top hostesses in one of Japan's
most popular gay nightclubs. Eddie has an
obsessive love for the club owner who's
already involved with the clubs "madam",
a jealous and aging transvestite. Eddie
has strange flashbacks to his childhood:
his non-existent father and the cloudy and
strange memories of his mother. He has a
picture hidden in his apartment - but the
face of his father was burned out of the
picture by his mother years ago. As the
film progresses, we travel deeper into Eddie's
mind, piecing together the horrible truth
about his strange and violent past.
