The most challenging part was trying to balance the humor and campiness of the film with the explicit content. We wanted to make sure that the film was funny and entertaining, but also respectful and tasteful.

It was in this environment that French director Boris Szulzinger and American producer Leni Redmond conceived a satirical, sexually explicit take on the Tarzan mythos. The film was designed to turn the colonialist tropes and rigid gender roles of the original pulp novels on their head, using crude humor and explicit visuals to mock mid-century societal norms.
