When Ryo, a young magazine reporter, moves into a new apartment he is greeted by the passionate sounds of his astonishingly beautiful neighbor Satsuki. Realizing the wall dividing their apartments is paper thin, the captivated journalist begins to eavesdrop on every detail of the girl next door's life: her conversations, her bubble baths... her breathless cries.

Man, Woman & the Wall Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Alicia I love this movie so much
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
grandmastersik When Ryo, a journalist, moves into a new flat, the paper-thin wall separating them grants him access into the life of his cute, down-to earth neighbour.As curiosity gives way to spying, so too does his loneliness become obsessive, as she becomes almost a scientific study project... but soon, mere stalking isn't enough, and he wants to get to know the girl who lives behind the wall.As they become closer though, Ryo is confused as to his feelings, unable to connect the bubbly woman he considers a friend, with the faceless, fantasy one who lives the other side of the wall.Voyeurism, romance, bizarre sexual kicks... if you want to see something different, fresh and surprisingly unoffensive, given its perverse theme, then I would recommend this.The best film venturing "off-the-beaten-track" that I've seen in a long time.
dragokin This one got me by surprise. Although it plays on some general misconceptions, if not prejudice, about Japanese, it offers a very interesting take on human relations.A guy moves into an apartment and meets an attractive neighbor living in the flat next to his. He becomes obsessed with her and stalks her with some audio equipment.With time we meet her boyfriend who is a control freak. It is not clear whether he simply stalks the girlfriend or whether it is their role play, yet she is submissive and accepts the relationship as it is.So, there are two guys stalking a girl, but only one can win her heart.
Desertman84 Ryou, who has just settled into her apartment, becomes intrigued when the room next door reveals a female voice. The phone rings, the shower runs, then gasping. From what is exposed from the thin walls,the sexy thriller, Man,Woman And The Wall reveals an unparalleled lifestyle to those who haven't watched it. The cast of the movie includes Keita Ohno, Hiroto Kato, Sho Nishino, Mutsuo Yoshioka, Rumi Otori and the well-known Japanese porn star,Sora Aoi.The movie makes us perverts but it also allows us to differentiate how two individuals live differently and how misconceptions can create bad results as both people start to have a relationship.In the end,it is a different brand of film as it takes us to people's sexual fantasies and urges. A highly recommended Japanese film.
lazarillo A man moves into an apartment and realizes his neighbor is an attractive young woman (Aoi Sola). Since this a Japanese movie, instead of conventionally romancing her, he starts electronically eavesdropping on her through the wall, masturbating as he listens to her take a shower or have sex with her boyfriend. He finally conspires to meet her by "accidentally" having a care package sent to her house. Eventually he learns that she has another stalker, strangely enough her own boyfriend, who has wired her apartment with video and is making scary, obscene calls to her (after which she inevitably invites him over for some hot sex). The two stalkers begin "competing", but it's a rather weird competition since the boyfriend actually WANTS the shy introvert to sleep with his girl, as long as he does it on camera, and the introvert seems most comfortable maintaining his "audio voyeur" masturbation routine. Of course, in real-life a woman would probably be most comfortable not be stalked at all, but the girl here eventually settles on one of her two perverted suitors. . .This is actually a pretty superior Japanese "pink" movie in that it would be pretty entertaining even WITHOUT Aoi Sola getting butt-naked every ten minutes, but of course she does that too. Sola, a former AV starlet, also played a "teenage" stalking victim in "Raw Summer", a similarly weird but much darker film that almost makes this look a sappy romantic comedy. This is NOT a sappy romantic comedy though, thank god, and while it's not totally believable, it does perhaps make a serious statement on the relationship between the sexes and the alienation in modern-day Japanese society. I also like the final scene where you get see something--totally sans optical "fogging"--that you rarely see in Japanese movies (which I always find odd in the country that invented schoolgirl "tentacle-rape" movies).This is definitely worth seeing.
