NOTES

Kozo, a widower at 91, takes 69-year-old Sayoko as his second wife. One day Kozo collapses and Sayoko, in collusion with Kashiwagi from the matchmaking service, immediately empties his bank accounts. Not only that, but she declares to Kozo's daughters that she will legally inherit nearly all his assets. A controversial depiction of the "second wife industry" that preys on rich older men
