TALK TO MY BACK TP

Set in an apartment complex on the outskirts of Tokyo, Murasaki Yamada\'s Talk to My Back (1981-84) explores the fraying of Japan\'s suburban middle-class dreams through a woman\'s relationship with her two daughters as they mature and assert their independence, and with her husband, who works late and sees his wife as little more than a domestic servant.
