Yakuza Ladies Revisited - Shima Iwashita (1991) - Aberdeen Harbour

The brother (the successor) goes missing after spending the night with a call girl and turns up floating in Aberdeen Harbour. There is a brief night time (or perhaps filtered) shot of the harbour before the camera pans and zooms in on a spot by the breakwater before cutting to a close up of his dead body. As the camera pans left, it's obvious the shot was taken from the breakwater at the west entrance to the harbour. It's a very specific shot, so I wonder if this was actually shot for the film rather than licensed or stock footage.
