Jugend und Sexualität

Zurich’s Urdorf school was pioneering in terms of sexual education for children in Switzerland. Starting in 1970, pupils of all ages there were offered wider information and more perspectives on gender relations than was habitual then. The Werkfilm Collective portrayed this experiment at a decisive moment: towards its end, when the question arose of whether or not to institutionalise such courses.
