Die heiβen Nächte der Josefine Mutzenbacher Die heiβen Nächte der Josefine Mutzenbacher
Hans Billian / West Germany / 1981 / 93 min / German
The anonymously published pornographic novel Josefine Mutzenbacher (likely written by Felix Salten, the author of Bambi, in 1906) inspired a series of films produced by the champions of Bavarian erotic film. The film is not only a great classic from the repertoire of the former Sloga cinema but also a nationwide 1980s blockbuster that was playing in cinemas from Krško to Kranjska gora.
