I believe they're both in Russia, Cruel World is in/near Moscow. Don't know where Ginger is located.
Ginger Stories (her newest site) is mainly into hanging/garroting/asphyxiation. They are on friendly terms with Alex, as they used to use Cruel World to market their product.
But since Ginger Stories has taken off, there is no longer any cross-pollination between the two. And Ginger Stories doesn't sell their films on deadsexyclips.com or Clips4Sale.
Ginger old stuff looks to still be available on Nicheclips (Aoromasay) or Magic Bubbles (C4S), but it is mainly water stuff. I love Gingers look, and was hoping for awhile that Ginger would make the trek to Moscow to "suffer" under Alex, but it never happened.
