Hurra, wir werden aufgeklärt!

About This Movie

So, 'Hurra, wir werden aufgeklärt!' is one of those oddities from the late 80s that tries to dive into the world of sex education films from the 60s and 70s. There's this strange blend of earnestness and awkward humor—like watching someone try to explain the birds and the bees while completely missing their mark. The pacing is a bit uneven, and you can tell that the filmmakers had their hearts in the right place but might have been a bit out of touch. The practical effects, if you can call them that, add to the unintentional comedy. It’s all wrapped in a documentary style that feels very much like a time capsule, showcasing attitudes toward sexuality that seem almost quaint today. Totally fascinating in a cringe-worthy way.
