Sex, der Stoff, aus dem Intrigen sind

I've never been able to identify "Ralf Scott", a journeyman German pornographer whose results don't even measure up to the low level of a hack like Walter Molitor.

He goes for incest and various sleaze in A FAMILY AFFAIR, noteworthy only because it is shot on film well into the cheap-video era.

From my copious notes (I just love that word copious) I can summarize the icky hijinks as dealing with the fate of a rich family after the lord of their castle dies mysteriously. A prodigal son returns home, and character porn star Roberto Malone is the uncle, while blonde superstars Sibylle Rauch and Kelly Trump are also part of the entourage.

There's a set-piece of a woman sunbathing that gives rise to an orgy, including another familiar porn guy Richard Voicin. Bay-faced porn star Francesco Malcom has an argument with Trump, just so they can make up with a hump. Incest rears its head when a grandpa feels up his sexy but very young looking grand-daughter (the lovely Peneolpe, who made a specialty in such roles), forcing her to blow him -she spits out the cum and gets angry in a fairly disturbing (on purpose) sequence.

Her revenge is to find some deadly mushrooms in the woods to serve to grandpa at his next meal, and then celebrates his death.

Typical trash, a Euro novelty when watched occasionally but probably porn at this level served up on a regular basis could kill you.

If you're in the mood for a sizzling European adventure, then get ready to dive into the sultry world of "Sex, der Stoff, aus dem Intrigen sind." This 1996 adult film, directed by Mario Pollak, is a tantalizing treat for those who appreciate a good story woven amidst passionate encounters. With a title that translates to "Sex, the Fabric of Intrigue," the movie certainly delivers on its promise!

The film follows the sexy exploits of a group of individuals whose lives become intertwined in a web of desire, power, and secrets. It's a tale of lust and ambition, where sexual encounters are not just physical releases but also tools for manipulation and pleasure. The premise sets the stage for a series of steamy scenes that will leave you feeling like a voyeur in a high-stakes game of seduction.

The cinematography is impressive, with each scene framed to capture the beauty of the actors and their surroundings. The locations vary from sunny outdoor settings to luxurious indoor spaces, adding a sense of opulence to the already-rich visuals. And the cast itself is a diverse and attractive bunch, bringing their A-game to every steamy encounter.

One particularly memorable scene involves the stunning Sandra De Angelis. In a sunny outdoor setting by the pool, she becomes the center of attention for four well-endowed men: Alain L'Yle, Philippe Soine, Reinhardt, and Richard Langin. Sandra enthusiastically surrenders herself to their desires, moaning with pleasure as she's taken from behind, both anally and vaginally, in a breathtaking display of double penetration. Her cries of passion echo across the water as she's brought to climax again and again, finally culminating in a facial that leaves her breathless and satisfied.

Another standout moment involves the gorgeous Kelly Trump, who finds herself in a steamy outdoor threesome with Backey Jakic and Francesco Malcom. Kelly's insatiable appetite for pleasure knows no bounds as she eagerly submits to their desires. The scene intensifies with Kelly on all fours, taking one man deeply from behind while the other enters her from the front, driving her wild with a relentless double penetration that leaves her screaming for more.

While the film certainly delivers on its adult promises, the plot could have benefited from a bit more depth. At times, the story feels like a thin veil connecting the sexual encounters, and some viewers may crave a bit more substance to the intrigue hinted at in the title. However, the performances are committed, and the eroticism is undeniably effective, making for an entertaining watch.

In conclusion, "Sex, der Stoff, aus dem Intrigen sind" is a steamy and explicit journey into the world of sexual intrigue. With a healthy mix of storytelling and graphic content, it offers something for fans of both adult films and erotic storytelling. While it may not be a masterpiece of cinematic art, it certainly provides a satisfying and titillating experience.
