Actress Svenja Jung is causing a stir in the new ARD series 'naked', which delves into the intricate themes of sexual addiction and co-dependency. The series, set to debut on October 2, features 35 intimate scenes, with Jung appearing in 12 of them. Notably, intimacy coordinators were employed on set to ensure the safety and comfort of the actors during these scenes.
Jung, recognized for her role in 'Ein Mann seiner Klasse', is no stranger to challenging roles. However, she admits that the intimate nature of 'naked' required a unique approach. She advises young actresses to prioritize the script and insist on having an intimacy coordinator present on set. Jung herself has set boundaries in the past when she felt uncomfortable with a scene.
The actress finds that the sex scenes in 'naked' serve a dramatic purpose, rather than being voyeuristic. She plays Marie, a character who becomes co-dependent in her relationship with a sex-addicted man. Despite the intensity of the role, Jung maintains a relaxed attitude towards nude scenes, thanks to her background as a professional dancer.
With 'naked', Svenja Jung delivers a powerful performance that explores the complexities of human relationships. The use of intimacy coordinators on set ensures that the series was produced responsibly, prioritizing the comfort and safety of its actors. The series is available to stream on the ARD media library from October 2.
