Erika Linder talks about her sexy new film, Below Her Mouth, with V magazine.
“But basically it’s a love story, so it’s very relatable. It’s really raw, and real, and that’s what really appealed to me. The fact that it was an all female crew drew me to it. It is different from Blue is the Warmest Color, which was shot by a man and is really masculine and pornographic in my eyes. This is graphic, you see everything, but it’s more romantic in a way. I was fine with it until it happened and then I saw the bed and all of the cameras…I fucking freaked out a little bit! They were like, ‘Erika what’s going on?’ I had a girlfriend at the time, and I was like, ‘this is so weird,’ but the other girl was like, ‘Just go for it.’
…It’s all up to the people’s imagination; there are no body doubles or anything. It’s my ass, it’s my boobs, it’s my body, everything! They took such a risk with me. They found some stupid video of me, and they contacted [my agency] NEXT saying ‘we want to meet her.'”
