Bodil Joensen (1944–?) was a Danish pornographic actor born in the village Hundige near Copenhagen. Her career in pornography began at age 17 when she appeared in "light fetish" pornography before establishing herself in the bestiality subgenre. She starred in a number of feature films and shorts, in which she and other actors had sex with various animal species.
She drew special attention as the Boar Girl, a reputation earned from her live performances with swine, as well as her participation in films shot with pigs on her own breeding centre. The movies she appeared in combined a peculiar blend of the "tolerant contemporary Danish society" image and Scandinavian rustic nostalgia. The prototypical film of this type is A Summer Day (1970) by Shinkichi Tajiri, showing her with animals on her estate to the tune of Sixth Symphony. What made her famous worldwide, however, was the unusual nature of the sexual acts she performed.
After 1972 she experienced a sharp deterioration. She underwent very obvious physical and psychological changes, first working as a "live show" and "sexual role play" girl and then ending up in straight street prostitution. Years after her final interview [1] in 1980, her fate is still uncertain. She is believed to have committed suicide in the early 1980s. However, in his essay "Dead Famous" [2] in the book Fleshpot (ISBN 1-900-486-121), Jack Stevenson finds no hard evidence of the 'suicide' or death of Bodil Joensen as of 6 July 2005.
