Editorial Reviews

Product Description
There was a time when... adult entertainment meant going to the movies. When X-rated features where shot on 35mm film, had real stories and were directed by people who considered themselves movie directors and not pornographers. It was the 1970s, before the home video boom, and the platinum blonde goddess of the adult silver screen was a charismatic, enthusiastic woman called Seka, a starlet worshipped by millions throughout the western world.

One of Seka’s fans is Swedish journalist Stefan Nylén, who decided to locate her for an interview. Who is Seka? What is her story? What was the adult industry like during its golden age? What became of its stars and producers? Join Stefan on his quest for Seka!

Desperately Seeking Seka is an adventurous odyssey through X-rated America, featuring open-hearted interviews with some of the most well known people in adult entertainment of yesteryear and today- and some truly catchy music. EXTRAS:
• Deleted Scenes & Interviews
• Extended Interviews
• Photo Gallery
• Commentary Track
• Production Notes
• Seka Filmography
• Outtakes
• DVD ROM Features
• Publicity Material

4.0 out of 5 stars American Idol, April 1, 2005
By Boggman! (Laguna Hills, CA) - See all my reviews
A swedish journalist (Stefan Nylén) travels to the US to seek out his all time favorite porn star from the 70's and 80's in this cool little documentary from Magnus Paulsson & Christian Hallman. Seka was a platinum blonde sex goddess who ruled the big screen (35mm film), as well as the little screen (home video) back in the golden & silver age of porn. However, in the 80's she up and vanished, leaving the business behind her. Where is Seka? How is she doing? Why did she leave it all behind? These are the questions posed during the film. Along the way, Stefan travels to a porn convention in Las Vegas, interviewing several of the people in the business who either knew Seka, or worked with her at one point in time. He also travels to Los Angeles on his quest for answers. Apparently Seka wasn't too hard to find, and Stefan eventually travels to Chicago to meet his American Idol. What fascinated be about this movie was the actual Seka herself. This is now a woman who by simply looking at her today, you would think she was your next door neighbor! However, she conducts herself freeely in her interview with Stefan, which I found to be quite refreshing and entertaining. I really enjoyed the concept and execution of this film. Very much recommended if you like documentaries, and/or the history of porn and the adult film industry.

3.0 out of 5 stars Waited a long time to see it, not terribly worth it..., April 19, 2006
By Kevin I. Slaughter (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews
Though I enjoyed watching this docu. about Seka, it was a bit of a letdown in a number of regards. One was the demystifying of a woman I knew little about. I enjoyed the information in "The Other Hollywood" about her, but seen on camera with her cats, very plain, it's just well, anti-clamactic.
I was skeptical of it, and found a used copy of it. It's pretty low-budget and the interviews aren't all to exciting and much of it seems to be filler.
If you can rent it, get it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Desperately Seeking Seka, January 23, 2008
Desperately Seeking Seka is an amateurish, 45 minute long, "doucumentary", about the filmaker's search for Seka, porn's "goddess" in the 80's and 80's. After taking a little time talking about his journey from Sweden (I believe) and talking to some other porn stars from the "golden age of porn", he finally finds Seka-and the movie falls flat on its face at that point. If anyone wants to know about Seka, read about her on Wikipedia and save your money on this DVD!
