Going to Hong Kong to live with her husband Jean (Umberto Orsini), Emmanuelle (Sylvia Kristel) takes a boat, where she has to sleep in big all-female sleeping quarters (rather like in a prison), much to her dismay, but that doesn't keep her to have a bit of lesbian sex, with all the other women watching.

Later in Hong Kong, she has sex with a dancing teacher, a polo player (Venantino Venantini), & she tries to seduce Christopher (Frédéric Lagache), a guest to her house, by masturbating in front of him with accupuncture needles sticking out of her libs & nipples ... somehow it doesn't work. When she a few days later finds Christopher in a brothel, she on one hand is shocked & sends him home, on the other hand she stays a little longer & has sex with 3 (!) men. Her husband Jean by the way knows everything, & seems to feel quite happy for her.

But Emmanuelle sees her real mission in introducing young, innocent, virginal Anna Marie (Catherine Rivet) into the world of sex, so as step one she takes her along with herself & Jean to a massage parlour where she is given an erotic massage (by Laura Gemser). Then Emmanuelle takes her with herself & Jean to Bali, where they at first hook her up with a tourist so the girl loosens up a bit, but then Emmanuelle & Jean both have sex with her.

The End.

Emmanuelle l'antivierge has pretty much all the same flaws as its predecessor, Emmanuelle, it is little more than a succession of well-lit softcore sexscenes, hung upon some travelogue-like pictures & a bit of cheesy philosophy, with an almost noexistent story that seems to begin & end at some deliberately chosen point & shows no narrative (let alone character-) development. But worst of all, the film dos take itself too seriously !!!

Sexy Laura Gemser, who plays a masseuse here, soon graduated to leading role in the much funnier rip-off series Black Emanuelle.
