Here's How the '365 DNI' Sex Scenes Looked So Real

The new movie 365 DNI (translated to 365 Days in English) has been at the top of the charts on Netflix for the past week and it’s drawing comparisons to Fifty Shades of Grey due to the erotic scenes.

The movie follows a mafia boss named Massimo (Michele Morrone) who has a near-death experience and sees the image of a young woman (Anna Maria Sieklucka) while he’s close to dying. Years later, he runs into that woman by chance, kidnaps her, and gives her 365 days to fall in love with him.

Bartek Cierlica, the film’s cinematographer, is opening up about how he filmed the sex scenes to make them look so real.

“Each sex scene in this movie is different,” he told Variety. “The relationship evolves. It starts with fear of the unknown and temptation. It evolves through pure sex with BDSM and ends with love. The main idea was to create the rising tension between the two heroes starting from their first meeting. We wanted the viewer to participate in playing the game that Laura tries to play with Massimo and discover her sexuality and sensuality with her.”

“We wanted the camera to be as much invisible as possible, to let them act, so indeed the takes were very, very long,” he added. “We created the most intimate atmosphere we could for the actors. We reduced the on-set crew to an absolute minimum. As it was handheld I was following their action, and trying to show their passion in a natural but beautiful way. We wanted this sex to be pretty authentic. We wanted the viewer to hear their whispers, heavy breaths and we wanted to show the sweat, passion. Be natural, authentic, but not to cross the border of pornography.”
