A gypsy's eyes promise pleasure, but her secrets demand everything. Who's hunting whom?
Eyes like burning coals, entrancing and mysterious, the Gypsy sweeps you up in a whirlwind of passions and secrets where the guards and Artesian find themselves caught up in an internet sexual round where body and soul go wild. A film that gives new meaning to the word "sensuality"!

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Alain Payet directed over 200 adult and exploitation films; this was his stab at 'legitimate' erotic thriller legitimacy. The 'Artesian' in descriptions is likely a garbled translation of 'artisan' or a proper noun lost to time.
La Gitane arrived at the dying breath of the erotic thriller boom—Basic Instinct money was gone, but direct-to-video European co-productions kept the flame flickering with worse lighting and bolder content.
