On "Seinfeld", what is the title of the fictional film about "a young girl's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk"?

The story behind the answer

On "Seinfeld," the fictional film described as "a young girl's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk" is titled "Rochelle, Rochelle."

The movie is first introduced in "The Movie," when Jerry sees a trailer while trying to reach a theater showing another film. The title and sensational tagline are deliberately vague, making Rochelle, Rochelle sound like an art-house movie with an unusually broad European itinerary. George, Jerry, and Elaine eventually end up watching it after their plans repeatedly go wrong.

Rochelle, Rochelle returns as a recurring fictional piece of Seinfeld mythology. George rents it on videotape in "The Smelly Car," and it later becomes a Broadway musical starring Bette Midler in "The Understudy." The other choices are also fictional films from the series: "Chunnel" appears in another storyline, while "Sack Lunch" and "Prognosis Negative" are separate Seinfeld movie references. "The Movie" first aired on January 6, 1993, during season 4.
