Encarna Conde does not fit the profile of your average silicone enhanced, pouting porn star. At 45, she is a late entry to that group of women who seek fame or fortune by performing sexual acrobatics and faking orgasms for the camera.
Her first film, Breaking Barriers, is, however, already the subject of debate on internet chatboards and has even had entire pages dedicated to it in the Spanish press. The reason for the fuss is that Encarna is a wheelchair user who has a musclecontrol disorder called ataxia. She is also president of the Association of Andalucian Ataxia Groups.
Her decision to appear on screen with professional porn actors came after she wrote to Spain's biggest porn producer to complain that disabled people never featured in his films. Antonio Marcos, whose X Canal company's productions include titles such as Vice Mansion, Give it to Me Baby and How to Make Your Own Porn Movie, agreed to hold a casting for aspiring disabled porn stars.
Nobody, however, presented themselves so Encarna volunteered.
'It was very pleasant, though I was somewhat cowardly,' says Encarna. Unusually for a porn film, however, Breaking Barriers ends with a serious conversation between Encarna and her producer.
