Overview

Schoolgirls Growing Up continues the controversial German anthology series, this time focusing on vivid personal stories from young women navigating their sexual coming-of-age. Presented as a pseudo-documentary, the film weaves together a series of candid confessions and case studies, each revealing the complexities and taboos around adolescent sexuality in 1970s Germany. Through the lens of a reporter and supported by a cast that blurs the line between fiction and staged reality, the film examines everything from summer camp flirtations to more provocative and forbidden encounters. Unapologetically explicit and satirical, it reflects both the raunchy curiosity and the social anxieties of its era.
