First,
don't be misled by the title, this is not a hardcore (XXX) porn film.
Here, the Deep Throat moniker is used as a reference to the informant
character in Bernstein/Woodward's All The President's Men (also
1976) and - as such - it's supposed to emphasize lead character Claudine's
reporter status.
Claudine
is a photojournalist for a newspaper in Paris and she is working on a
major story about a famous actor, José Depardieu, and his wild
orgies which involve violence, drugs and underage participants. However,
her editor - being a friend of Depardieu - nixes the article. Claudine,
with her friend (and lover) Angelica, continues the investigation. They
find a young girl who had been victimized at one of the parties and is
now in a catatonic state. This pushes Claudine into action, spurred on
by her own memory of sexual abuse from a stepfather. She had managed to
escape that domestic nightmare by shooting him dead; however - today -
whenever she hears a specific song, Claudine is engulfed with an uncontrollable
desire to find someone (anyone) and have immediate sex.
Ajita
Wilson was rumored to be a transgender actress - born George Wilson -
who underwent sex reassignment surgery in the early '70s. This has never
been proven. In fact, it was denied by both Jess Franco (who worked with
Ajita on SADOMANIA)
and Joe D'Amato. She is best known for Cesare Canevari's NUDE
PRINCESS. Ms Wilson died in May of 1987 from cerebral hemorrhage
after an automobile accident. She was 37 years old.
This
wildly erratic production was initially the brainchild of director Guido
Zurli but - after only a few days of shooting - he left the set (claiming
serious illness) never to come back. The editor Romeo Ciatti continued
in Zurli's absence. He was replace by genre workhorse Mario Bianchi (THE
SLASHER WAS A SEX MANIAC, SATAN'S
BABY DOLL, et al) who finished the project.
