An Australian filmmaker who controversially auctioned off a Brazilian girl's virginity for a documentary is turning the project into a reality TV show.
Justin Sisely filmed Virgins Wanted, a documentary film project in which both a man and a woman auctioned off their virginity, last year.
But now, he is promoting it as a reality TV series, which is set to debut at an entertainment trade fair in October in Cannes, France.
"It is now a factual series," Mr Sisely told The Huffington Post. "We have signed a distribution contract with a leading global multi-national distributor of television content."
Catarina Migliorini, the female virgin, reportedly received a winning bid of more than £500,000 for her virginity from a Japanese man known as Natsu.
Predictably, her male counterpart, Alex Stepanov, only received a top bid of about £2,000, from an Australian woman identifying herself as Kasandra Darlinghurst.
Mr Sisely says the project created a huge amount of interest and he was receiving at least 50 emails a week from virgins and potential bidders wanting to be involved in a follow up.
"We have recieved over 500 videos of men and women from all over the world outlining why they should be the next virgin to auction their virginity," he said.
