A sex scene, with only Isabelle Illiers in it, was filmed but then it wasn't included in the final cut. In his autobiography, Klaus Kinski recalls: "The girl I'm supposed to place in a brothel has a delicious cheese. During one scene, she truly has a nervous breakdown when a mechanical dick on a kind of fuck machine is inserted into her hole. She throws herself on the cold, slimy sand floor of the studio and rolls and wallows in the filth, shrieking her lungs out. No one can get near her. I lovingly calm her down and take her to my dressing room. There I bend her over the makeup table in front of the mirror and give her a rough and thorough fuck from behind. Then she's fine again."
In an interview that she gives to a magazine, Arielle Dombasle looks back on her film career and in particular an erotic film, titled Fruits of Passion (1981), which she would have preferred to forget. "It was something that made me suffer horribly. I was too young to do that, and then Kinski ... he was crazy" she says.
Arielle shot this film in 1981. She was then 28 years old. There she play opposite to Klaus Kinski. According to the artist and muse of Bernard-Henri Lévy, playing the opposite to the German actor was hell. "He's a guy who crushed the weak, the nastiest trait there is. Someone who liked relationships by force, who absolutely wanted to be loved and who did everything to not love him. Unbearable ".
In his autobiography 'Kinski Uncut', Klaus Kinski talked about the sexual relations he had with his French co-stars, clearly referring to Isabelle Illiers and to Arielle Dombasle, respectively: "There are also two Frenchwomen. I'm supposed to fuck both of them in front of the camera. In Paris I immediately drag one of them to my pad on the Quai Bourbon and fuck her on the floor right inside the apartment entrance. The other Frenchwoman is hysterical and is still resisting long after I've stuck my dick into her pussy and shot. She's married, and during the fuck she babbles about 'rape...adultery...scoundrel...'
Yet her bodacious butt sticks out so hornily that she can't want anything but adultery."
In his autobiography, Klaus Kinski wrote all the sex scene in this movie were unsimulated. "The Japanese never complain; they like to work. But we have to fuck here! Yet, every man's cock is hanging limp, even though the producer and director Jushi Terajama has signed for so-and-so many fucking dicks and cunts in his contract, in coproduction with the French. One of the Japanese girls, whom I have to fuck in the film and whom I also hump in my hotel, goes into dark corners with the men and sucks their cocks until they get hard. Then she runs to Terajama to give him the good news. It often happens that a cock will become limp again before the camera starts rolling. As for myself, I simply reach into the cheesy panties of one of the French actresses from time to time for a fingerful."
A sex scene between Klaus Kinski and Isabelle Illiers was filmed but it wasn't included in the final cut. There is a series of 'GettyImages' photos from the set showing Kinski on a bed having sex with Illiers from behind.
