The VMD DVD seems to have intact credits and I assume it is an
essentially original release as no evidence of 'tampering' can be
found, and that as 'dolce vita' is a sufficiently cosmopolitan term
they didn't feel it necessary to add their usual Gallic imprimatur:

Silvia Cristian; 'Venere Bianca' [i.e. without the definite
article]; Katsuni as Katsumi, naturally; Rita Faltojano.
Add: Sandra Mei, as Alexandra Blake.
The name 'Michela Torre' does not appear.

... just a note on the plot [labyrinthine and extensive, even by
Salieri standards].
Fantastically depressing, and handily disposes of the stereotypical
canard that stigmatizes the Germans as the standard-bearers of
western European lugubriousness. If I spent five minutes talking to
MS I think I'd have a breakdown.... anything that has Bambola
ending up taking nun's vows can hardly be described as 'life-affirming'.
