Synopsis by Mark Deming

Three people whose lives have taken a turn for the worse retreat into a world of erotic dreams made flesh in this drama from director Sai Yoichi. An executive with a large industrial corporation finds his job and his future is on the line when his firm is beset by labor troubles at the same time severe financial mismanagement has been discovered. As the executive looks for a way out of his situation, he becomes involved in a ménage a trios relationship with two fellow employees, a woman and another man. As real life becomes all the more unpleasant, the businessman and his lovers become deeply attached to one another as he explores sides of his sexual nature he's never been able to investigate in the past. Sex Crime was produced during Yoichi's tenure with Nikkatsu Corporation, a Japanese studio that specialized in "roman porno," a line of glossy soft-core adult films; this proved to be his only film in the genre.
