Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Alice Arno was a staple of French erotic cinema, appearing in over a dozen similar productions in the 1970s. This was director Maxime Debest's only credited film.

Cultural

Part of the 'fantastique érotique' wave where French filmmakers fused horror folklore with softcore content to circumvent stricter pornography laws. The title's pipe reference is deliberately double-entendre.
