FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.—Florida-based adult studio Forbidden Fruits Films is the little engine that could. Working with small budgets and brand-new performers, Jay and Jodi West prove that you can do more with less. Now, they're doing more with more—and the results will be revealed next month.
The husband-wife team just wrapped up shooting on their latest girl/girl movie, Lesbian Border Crossings. Forbidden Fruits’ most expansive girl/girl project to date, Lesbian Border Crossings from the beginning challenged the company's production capabilities.
"Being known for our mostly tight budgeted productions," said production director Jay West, "we usually wouldn't have need for stunt drivers and firearms range safety officers, but this production needed them all! The end product is going to be packed with excitement, breathtaking scenery and a great storyline, along of course with some great girl/girl sex."
For the screenplay, Forbidden Fruits brought in mainstream screenwriter Kat Fisher to bring the dialogue to life. Kat wrote for several mainstream Fox Studios productions, but this is the first adult feature he has written.
"I've worked with the Forbidden Fruits Films team on a couple of earlier projects in a cinematographer capacity, so when the storyline idea was coming together, I jumped at the chance to write it," Fisher said.
The movie—starring Jodi West, Veronica Rodriguez, Anya Olsen, Gina Valentina and Madison May—is a unique project that takes on the hot political topic of immigration. Crossing the border in this drama are two hot Latinas immigrating illegally into the United States—and they just happen to be lesbian lovers. Veronica Rodriguez and Gina Valentina play the border jumpers, pitted against Border Patrol agents Madison May and Anya Olsen. Jodi West wraps up the cast as the Homeland Security special agent in charge.
"The storyline and location sets are fantastic," said Jodi West, president and owner of Forbidden Fruits Films and director of Lesbian Boarder Crossings. "But what really makes this film is the incredibly hot girl/girl sex. I have had the pleasure of working with a couple of these women before, but it was the first time for Veronica and Gina, and they blew my mind! Each scene is so uniquely different and exquisitely hot in its own way."
West added, "We were able to take advantage of the gorgeous desert landscape in Arizona where everything right now is in full bloom. The cast was spot-on with their acting and the sex scenes sizzle in more ways than one! We didn't set out to make this a political satire, but it just sort of developed that way. It was so much fun to make, we think our audience is going to absolutely love it!"
The movie will be available in mid-May exclusively for members of the new ForbiddenFruitsFilms.com membership site, which is set to launch the same date. It will be distributed on DVD, broadcast and on all major VOD sites a month later. Both trailers and picture galleries will be available at the end of April for promotional purposes.
