Julia (1974)

Teenager Pauli (Ekkehardt Belle) was eager to spend his school break on holiday with his family...and even more eager to lose his virginity.

Kristel's sensual follow-up project after "Emmanuelle" also stars Jean-Claude Bouillon, Gisela Hahn, Dominique Delpierre. 83 min. In German with English subtitles/Dubbed in English. C/Rtg: R

Playing With Fire (Le Jeu Avec Le Feu) (1975)

With his shady finances about to collapse, banker Georges de Saxe (Philippe Noiret) connived to fake the kidnapping of his teenage daughter Carolina (Anicée Alvina) with an eye toward pocketing the ransom. As seedy investigator Franz (Jean-Louis Trintignant) spirits the girl away for safekeeping to an Art Noveau brothel favored by her father, there may be a double-cross to cap the kinky goings-on.
