Van Nuys, CA – TightFit Productions owner and founder Oren Cohen has released the following statement in regards to the release Assraelis, the first Israeli adult film to be distributed in the United States.

“Over the past week our Israeli Erotica title has generated a great amount of controversy. Not since Deep Throat, www.xxxdeepthroat.com has an adult film garnered such national and international attention. I want to clear the air around this title and the use of the Kosher symbol on it’s cover. Throughout history, humor and our ability to laugh have separated the Jewish people from other cultures. In times of adversity, pain and persecution we’ve triumphed as a people and found great solace in laughter. The defamation of Judaic culture and religion was never our intent when we selected the Kosher symbol. I trust that the Jewish people can discern humor from malice.”

Stories have recently run in the New York Times, as well as Yediot and Maariv, the two major daily papers of Israel, where the movie ran as front page stories.
