    An endless (and bogus) opening crawl claims this garbage was filmed secretly in the Soviet Union ("near the Arctic") at great peril, to represent the opposition to the government and a burgeoning but surreptitious local porn industry. This is all fake nonsense, as a poorly made U.S. porn film plays "let's pretend".

    The anti-Communist rhetoric here is amusing in retrospect, just like those jingoistic WW II propaganda films have a comical postscript. Since the cheap-jack filmmakers throw in endless amounts of stock footage and second unit shots of the hero Scott wandering aimlessly around Moscow, I was even more titillated by the anti-American propaganda preserved here: military parades with banners and floats littered with dollar signs and caricatures of America's supposedly militaristic regime.

    A busty but not very pretty actress plays Librianna, palmed off as the leader of Russia's sexual liberation. Our stalwart (and dull) hero Scott is sent from Seattle by his boss to interview her, but he ends up shtupping her instead.

    Format is a license to kill, as it's supposedly Russian-track dubbed into English yet with mostly voice-over narration by "Scott". Woody Allen's WHAT'S UP TIGER, LILY? approach is much funnier, and the result here is just another incompetent MOS shoot, deadly dull. The sex is boring too, with the hero's sizable cock put to work over & over & over.

    Residual value is merely as a tepid Cold War artifact and a strictly mediocre example of '70s porn gone wrong. The roadshow hucksterism of a century ago that morphed into the porno industry is alive in these fake but transparently so efforts to defraud a gullible public in "wink, wink" fashion.

    Hey, it's just a goofy, silly, sweet 1970's porn. It's got ridiculous stuff like badly dubbed maniacal laughter while three people are standing in a room and none of them are laughing. That said, the movie seems fairly in on the joke itself- it's pretty goofball and was intended to come across as such to then current audiences. The whole thing is your basic flimsy porn story line premise with pretty tame and vanilla (though fully explicit) sex scenes.

    I will mention that I take issue with the other reviewer panning the looks of the actress, she's fine and if anything it's the male lead who (at least by modern standards)is kind of goofy looking, but at the same time, who cares? It is what it is.

    Despite the poster, there is very little femdom, but it does come up as a gag where a Russian interrogator is into being whipped, so he has the women he interrogates tie him up and beat him. This is a throwaway joke about 2/3 of the way through the movie and is revisited again towards the end.

    On the whole, personally, the movie poster was by far my favorite part of the movie, but the movie itself is a silly and sweat slice of American sexual history. It is what it is, and it's currently available for free on Xhamster (which to be clear is a porn site and has all the risks of watching anything on a porn site, though they're pretty mainstream).

    Depending of what you expect, this Librianna-thing is a one-of-a-kind. Highly original and campy. Communism or Reds was never a big thing in erotic entertainment. But, one never knows. So refreshing to out nazis, satanist and worshippers of any higher might. Wonder what Pezda Vanutcka's life went.
