Gold-digger
Alicia (Consha Valero) goes to great lengths to seduce the handsome
Marquis (Jorge Batalla).
Co-star Andrea
Albani plays Claudia, the super-sexed 'trans' character. Lots of gratuitous
nudity, eye-rolling narratives and numerous politically incorrect sequences.
This one can't exist comfortably in today's gender-aware climate.
One

SCHOOLGIRLS. He began working as a scriptwriter [and producer]
in the early '60s, responsible for many Spaghetti Westerns including
Tinto Brass' YANKEE

westerns on his own, Alfonso was the Spanish co-director for many Italian
productions at the time. In the early '80s - under the alias Al Bagran
- Alfonso made a handful of Spanish sex films [including this one] which
had very similar plots and shared scenes. Mr Balcazar died from a stroke
in December 1993 at age 67.
