This unusual, dream-like saga directed by Liselle Bailey affords Carollina Cherry a rare opportunity as leading lady (rather than just part of the femme porn ensemble), convincing as a damsel distress for the Dorcel label.
She returns from France to London where she once worked but is immediately set on a spiralling downward path when her taxi ride from the airport breaks down. Soon she is mugged, finds herself with both unsavory characters and Good Samaritans and even a one-night stand in a nightclub bathroom (with Brit Porn mainstay Luke Hardy) en route to a surprise happy ending akin to just waking up from a nightmare. Amber Jayne leads a solid femme supporting cast that includes Candee Licious definitely cast against type as a lady mobster, who dresses in lingerie rather than going butch.
Bailey's ability to make such porn tales seem real (sort of) is uncanny, a combination of plenty of realistic locations and good acting. Cast speaks alternately French or English, with dubbing creating a choice of either language track. I don't know if Dorcel fans appreciate the director's skill, or if they merely watch for the XXX content, but Liselle's employment by Marc Dorcel for over two dozen features so far represents an amazing accomplishment.
