(Digital Video^85min^color/American Vista/Stereo)
directed by Katsuya Matsumura
story
Yoko Noguchi is already an established plastic surgeon who is still in twenties and runs her own clinic. Not only her skills, but also her beautiful face is the key of her success and that brings many women to her clinic. In private, she enjoys a satisfying love life with a doctor, the son of a big hospital. One day she is visited by a woman named Yoshie after business hour. She wears a cap that is deeply pulled down half way through on her face and asks Yoko to make her face like Yoko. Yoshie demands Yoko alone operates without any help of nurses at off business hour. In return Yoshie shows a stack of bills as the fee of surgery. Yoko is reluctant in the beginning, but gives it second thoughts, as the amount Yoshie presents is much more than the regular cost. When the surgery is successfully done, Yoko thinks it's all over with Yoshie, but Yoshie comes back again with more money to give and demands another surgery. And this is the only beginning of the chilling terror that drives Yoko insane. It is to ultimately shatter her career and life.
