Black Emanuelle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Black Emanuelle (Emanuelle nera) is an Italian softcore film from 1975, the first in a series made to cash in on the success of the French film Emmanuelle, which was released the year before. Like that film, it was followed by a long string of official and unofficial sequels.
