Emmanuelle 4 is the fourth official theatrical feature film in the Emmanuelle franchise. Sylvia Kristel returns in this strange blend of sci-fi and romance, playing herself, and handing over the role of Emmanuelle to Mia Nygren.

Looking back it’s hard to see what all the fuss was about. The image was at once playful and provocative: an attractive young woman half-dressed, twisting a string of pearls as she lounged suggestively on a wicker chair. It was the ad poster that would make Emmanuelle a huge international cinema success, and a young wanabee model named Sylvia Kristel a household name. ‘Twelve million Frenchmen stood in line for it!’ the US trailer breathlessly intoned, while one cinema on the Champs-Élyséess screened it for nine years.
