The Turner Classic Movies channel is currently listing that it will air Eiichi Yamamoto’s 1973 experimental anime film Belladonna of Sadness (Kanashimi no Belladonna) on March 5 at 2:15 a.m. The story of Belladonna of Sadness follows Jeanne (Katsutaka Ito) after she is assaulted by a local lord on her wedding night.
Cinelicious Pics restored Belladonna of Sadness in 4K resolution from its original 35mm negative.
The Devil transforms Jeanne into a black-robed manifestation of her madness and desire.
The Cinefamily theater in Los Angeles has been intermittently screening the film up through this month.
