He was simply just trying to collect insects that inhabit sand dunes on an expedition. Since he missed the last bus, the villagers offer him to stay the night. They guide him down a rope ladder to a house in a sand quarry where a young widow lives alone. The villagers employ her to dig sand for sale and to save the house from burial in the advancing sand. Unfortunately, Jumpei discovers the next morning that the villagers don't want him to leave and they want him to help the widow in her endless task of digging sand. Jumpei must find a way to deal with this situation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Bittersweet Ending: The good news is that Jumpei found a way to improve life in the pit by drawing water from the damp sand at night. The bad news is that he has gone missing for 7 years, and it's hard to say what would happen if they find him. | |

| Woman in the Dunes / int_471c46f8 | comment |
Allegory: Essentially the whole movie is an allegory for the desire to escape from society and the forces that keep us imprisoned within it. | |

Attempted Rape | |
| Woman in the Dunes / int_f85354eb | comment |
Attempted Rape: Junpei and the woman are told they can leave the dunes for one hour a day if they let the villagers watch them have sex. The woman disagrees but Jumpei tries to get her to do it (or at least pretend to) because it could be his chance to run away. She ends up fighting Jumpei off and they're left to stay where they are. | |
