Chicago, IL — 2025 — Director Lothario X (@LotharioX2) unveiled a striking new project filmed in the Chicago area, blending cinematic storytelling with themes of trust, vulnerability, and creative risk-taking. The project was shot in a boutique hotel near Rosemont, Illinois, chosen for its moody atmosphere and visual texture discovered during a scouting trip.
Photographer-turned-actress Sissy Stephanie, known for her bold creative evolution and collaboration with Toughwank Studios and Sexwork PR, took on the role to push her artistic boundaries. Joining her was Harley Lockhart (@harleylockhartx), an independent model and 2024 ASN Award nominee, recognized for her dedication and creative energy in the industry.
Producer Giovanni Valentino of Sexwork PR praised both performers for their professionalism and commitment, noting their collaborative approach to storytelling and emotional expression.
The scene forms part of the upcoming launch of Toughwank Studios on the Dark Fans platform — a space known for giving creators freedom to explore art that challenges conventions and celebrates authenticity.
“This project isn’t just about performance,” said Director Lothario X. “It’s about trust, craft, and the art of emotional tension — filmed with respect and intention.”
