Kamikaze Hearts (alternately titled Fact or Fiction) is a 1986 American quasi-documentary film[4] directed by Juliet Bashore and written by Bashore, Tigr Mennett, and John Knoop. It stars Sharon Mitchell, Tigr Mennett, Jon Martin, Sparky Vasque, Jerry Abrahms, and Robert McKenna. The soundtrack was composed by Georges Bizet, Walt Fowler, and Paul M. Young.
The film, while partly fictional, is based on the real life relationship between Mitchell and her girlfriend Tigr Mennett, who were both pornographic actresses. In Kamikaze Hearts, a camera crew follows Mitchell, nicknamed "Mitch," as she stars in a porn parody of the opera Carmen that Mennett is directing.
Facets Multi-Media released the film in November 1986. It received a 2K restoration by the UCLA Film & Television Archive and was re-released by Kino Lorber, premiering on May 13, 2022.
