Pink cinema became a potent genre of political expression. Wakamatsu produced Schoolgirl Guerrillas in 1969, directed by Adachi, which mixed sexploitation with radical politics. In Season of Terror (1969), a man has sex with two women before going on to suicide bomb Haneda Airport in an attempt to stop the prime minister from travelling to America. Sex Jack (1970) depicts a group of would-be hijackers fornicating. Red Army/PLFP: Declaration of World War was followed by Ecstasy of the Angels in 1972, once again interlacing the erotic with the increasingly nihilistic revolutionary acts of a radical cell.
