Sensational Janine (German: Josefine Mutzenbacher... wie sie wirklich war - 1. Teil) is a 1976 West German hardcore costume drama-sex comedy film directed by Hans Billian. The film is an adaptation of the anonymous novel Josephine Mutzenbacher on the life of the eponymous and fictional fin-de-siècle Viennese courtesan.
Background
Sensational Janine features director Billian's girlfriend Patricia Rhomberg in the title role. Billian gave her the role in part because she had the proper dialect for it.[1] It became the first pornographic film to feature a humorous Viennese German, which contributed significantly to its popularity among the German-speaking audience.[2]
Josefine is a Viennese teen very curious about sex. After she is deflowered by her neighbour Frau Reinthaler's lover Horak, she starts a very active sex life. Following her mother's abrupt demise, a relationship with her stepfather begins. A lodger blackmails the two with the accusation of incest and, revealed as a pimp, he makes Josefine become a prostitute working for him. Josefine then begins a career as a sex worker, with the goal to eventually become an upscale courtesan in Vienna.[3]

After removing most of her clothes, Josefine loses her virginity by going on top, and doing doggystyle before Horak has an orgasm.

One day, her mother contracts pneumonia and has to be taken down to the hospital, and her stepbrother has left to do his military services.
