Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia Rie Rasmussen, director and leading actress, talked about the explicit sex scene in which she receives unsimulated cunnilingus: "This is for real. I wanted to see it for real, and I wanted it to be from a female's point of view. Yeah, he is going down on her. It's in one take. There's no fucking cutting in and out and making it all romantic and rosey and shit. This is one take, and that's how it is. It's clumsy, it's sexy, it's hardcore, and he is going down on her."
