Plot: Rocco Siffredi wisely features his better half Rosa Caracciolo (the fabulous Jane in his D'Amato Tarzan film) in this dumb feature set at the 45th Cannes Film Festival. He plays Costner to her Whitney Houston (not) and the viewer is treated to guerrilla filmmaking at its cheapest.Somebody's trying to kill movie star Rosa, so Rocco is hired to up her security. Perhaps the footage of the duo strolling down the Croisette in front of famous Cannes hotels like the Carlton and Splendid has some historical significance, but the expected cameos by famous people is absent. Instead we see Rocco in a tux and Rosa ascending the stairs for her big movie premiere but no one else.The killer is meant to be a surprise plot twist but it is wholly uninteresting, as Rocco merely stages random sex scenes featuring attractive but disinterested femmes, including famous Euro star and filmmaker Anita Rinaldi. Dialog dubbed into English for Sin City release is terrible, and Joey Silvera pops up in a non-role just for sex purposes.
