Because of the boyhood trauma of seeing his mother make love to another man in
the presence of his dying father, Mizoguchi becomes a hopeless stutterer.
Taunted by his schoolmates, he feels utterly alone untill he becomes an acolyte
at a famous temple in Kyoto, where he develops an all-consuming obsession with
the temple's beauty. This powerful story of dedication and sacrifice brings
together Mishima's preoccupations with violence, desire, religion and national
history to dazzling effect.
