Plot: Aka Ana 2008 Aka Ana, is a haunting visual essay of prostitution in Tokyo that should absolutely not be experienced by anyone who is easily offended by sexual imagery Aka Ana is told through the eyes of six distinct voices, each prostitutes who open up their souls to the viewer, as DAgata juxtaposing visually haunting imagery of these sex workers in their natural habitat, servicing clients and and shooting heroin, anything to escape the world they inhabit Each woman brings a unique dynamic to Aka Ana One woman feels empowered by sex and views it as a way of seizing power from the male ego, while another woman towards the end of the woman is emotionally shattered, essentially a soulless body soaked in misery Aka Ana has no agenda outside of showing prostitution for what it is, being a very raw depiction certainly explains its lack of distribution
