Spermula is a 19761 French erotic fantasy film directed by Charles Matton and starring Canadian super model Dayle Haddon. There were two versions of the film at the time of the original release, with different dialogue and plot - one in French and one in English. The French version originally was released with the title and is less of a space opera than is the English-language version which leans more towards science fiction.

Production
Spermula was developed with the working title L'amour est un fleuve en Russie (Love is a River in Russia, a pun which replaces the French word for love with the homophonic name of the Russian river Amur). There are two different versions of the movie, with totally different plots. The French-language original, which has explicit erotica in it, is 103 minutes long whilst the English-dubbed version released in the United States has a running time of 88 minutes. The English-language version turned the women of the secret society into extraterrestrials, excised the most explicit scenes, changed the order of the scenes it retained, and added footage from the sci-fi movie Silent Running. The original French-language version may or may not have included nude footage of Eva Ionesco, who was 11 years old when nude photos of her from the Spermula set appeared in magazines. She is billed in the movie as "Petite fille" but no extant version of the film has any footage of her in it, which means that the magazine stories may have been publicity stunts.
Release
Spermula was released in France in 1976.
