Vivid Entertainment Group is set to unveil Briana Loves Rocco, a title that the company, along with director Paul Thomas, has been working on since '04.
“Shooting Briana Loves Rocco was a really great experience,” said Vivid Girl Briana Banks, one of the centerpieces of the video. “Paul Thomas loves to get really creative and artsy, so we shot some very beautiful scenes.”
“The scenes in Briana Loves Rocco are just as hot as any title out there,” Marci Hirsch, VP of production at Vivid, told AVN.com.
Thomas and the cast traveled to Budapest, Hungary, to shoot the title. The German-born Banks told AVN.com that she had not been to Budapest since she traveled there with her family as a little girl. “I’m pretty adventurous…I like to try different types of food and see new places, so it was a great experience for me. I went for a jog every morning and the scenery was beautiful.” That same scenery, Banks said, was a nice backdrop for some of the scenes in the title.
“It was great to shoot some scenes outside, and do some stuff that we couldn’t do in the United States,” she added.
In addition to Banks, the title stars a mix od American and European talent in Tera Bond, Rocco Siffredi, Alberto Rey, Karina, Alexa, Anita and Crystal.
Banks, who does two anal scenes and a d.p. in the feature, plays a filmmaking student overseas, joined by her friend Amalie (played by Bond). While there, Banks meets another filmmaker (Siffredi), whom she immediately falls for. Siffredi treats her poorly, and so Bank’s character comes up with a plan to degrade him.
At the same time, Bond’s character, Amalie, has started an abusive relationship with a Professor Marker (played by Rey) and Banks comes up with a plan to degrade him as well, but her second sexual scheme backfires.
Banks said that she was happy to get a chance to work with Siffredi before his original declaration of retirement as a performer in December of '04. Siffredi has since done a few select titles, most recently for Evil Angel.
“I’d only met Rocco a couple times before shooting the movie, and he was always someone that I wanted to work with," Banks said. "He told me on a few occasions that he thought I was beautiful and he’d love to work with me as well…I’m just happy that we got a chance to work together.”
“It was a great cast and a great crew, and we think that Paul Thomas’ stuff is some of the best out there,” said Hirsch, “and we have a pretty good track record out there to back that up.”
Briana Loves Rocco is set to release on Tuesday.
