The first segment of Pure Girl’s Document 14 embraces a raw and spontaneous approach, carried by the presence of Maria Kurosawa. Between simple moments at the beach and much more directly filmed sex scenes, the film develops an intimate, almost documentary-like atmosphere. The grainy DV texture, the silences, and certain everyday moments give the segment a strange sense of closeness, as if the camera were trying to capture a presence as much as mere eroticism.
