Production
It was Elisabetta Cavallotti herself who chose the actor with whom to shoot the unsimulated fellatio scene. "I chose Alex Mantegna because he wasn't too endowed. He was kind, but when I explained why I wanted him, he was offended", she said.

The scene in which Elisabetta Cavallotti performs on stage was not shot in the studio but directly during an erotic event called Mi Sex. The audience and the guys who takes the stage are not extras but normal people who were there for the event. They did not know that a movie was being made and Cavallotti behaved like one of the many performers who went up on stage to perform, between the eyes (and hands) of the audience.

Elisabetta Cavallotti said she thought that if she had a boyfriend, she wouldn't have done the movie, because, "I wouldn't be able to go back to him, after having been naked among the naked bodies of men and women, after having taken strangers' dicks in my mouth, having had who knows how many hands on me."
