  There is a reference to a Geisha party hosted for government officials

  There is a scene where two men attend a striptease show. Even though the dancer is covered by sheer material, veils and scarves, her for can be seen through the fabric, especially her buttocks. There is no actual bare nudity seen here but it is very suggestive. The camera pans down to her lower leg area (and the faces of our two characters) and based on the reaction of the audience, it is suggested that she removed the covering of her upper body.
