UNLEASHED
R ACING TOWARD SEXUAL
FREEDOM IN ‘DRIVE’
It’s the third day of a planned seven-day shoot on the
first feature movie from Deeper.com, the imprint created
by reigning AVN Director of the Year Kayden Kross, and
she’s striding briskly down a hallway space set up inside
a cavernous studio space in downtown Los Angeles. Two-
time Transsexual Performer of the Year winner Aubrey Kate
is waiting for her turn with the makeup artist in a side room
outfitted with couches. She’s booked to shoot with two-time
Female Performer of the Year Angela White, who plays the
lead character in the movie. Also on the couch are Pierce
Paris and Dante Colle, two versatile adult stars who perform
in trans, bi and gay scenes.
“Angela’s been great,” Kross says. “This has almost been
like a collaboration with her. She approached me originally.
That’s how this project came to be. She called me and
invited me to coffee and was, like, ‘I want you to make
something with me.’ … So I wrote it to her completely.”
White describes her character: a workaholic political
consultant who has repressed her sexuality so completely
that she’s undergoing therapy. “I have this incredible drive,
and I realize it’s dangerous,” she says. But ultimately it’s not
her therapist who helps her—it’s a mysterious figure who
represents the physical manifestation of her sexuality.
