Pink film
Nudity and sex would officially enter the Japanese cinema with the independent, low-budget "pink film" genre. Known as "eroductions" at the time, "Pink films" made up the bulk of releases in the 1960s. The first true "pink film", and the first Japanese movie with nude scenes, was Satoru Kobayashi's controversial and popular independent production "Flesh Market" ("Nikutai no Ichiba", 1962). Director Seijun Suzuki's "Gate of Flesh" (1964) was the first Japanese mainstream film to contain nudity.
