Avis à la une
This film was apparently made the same year as "Debbie Does Dallas" with highly similar plot lines. School girls form a "company" offering sexual services. Only in this film the girls charge money, not because they need it, but they believe that they should be compensated for their "sacrifice", even though they were the ones itching to lose their virginity. They offer their "services" to the boys school across the bridge, who promptly form a "company" of clients. Through a series of mishaps, no one seems to get laid.
This film starts off rather promisingly with the camera focused on a pair of breasts on par with Shannon Elizabeths (not quite though, these girls were real teenagers and plastic surgery was less common then). The girls appear in various states of undress and do a shower scene together. But since apparently they were under age (Fabiana Udenio was fourteen, Natassia Kinski seventeen). There clothes stay on during the sexual encounters.
I must admit that this film grows on you with repeated viewings and with time--I dont think this film could be made today with the strict child pornography laws in the U.S.
If you want to see some gorgeous girls in their flowering womanhood, this one is one of the tops--despite a weak plot.

When my friend and I bought this out of sheer curiosity, we weren't really expecting anything other than poorly filmed soft-core porn. Well, it's visually pretty grainy, and the voices are badly dubbed, but it's not really that much different from most other teen films today except for the fact that it doesn't try to be anything other than what it is; a teen comedy with a bit of female nudity. The two leads were nice to look at and, despite the campy feeling, most emotions on screen were realistic and palatable.
It's not a Scorsese but it's worth a look if you're bored or really like teen movies.
Not bad at all.

Only reason why this film got released by Atlantic pictures in 1982 is because young Kinski was in the film. Other than that, this film would've been lost in the drive-in market (I think it played in 1977 as PRETTY SCHOOL GIRLS in some US market in the 70's). Little laugh and bad dubbing, but it's good to see a early performance from two beautiful actresses Kinski and Udenio (who is in many U.S. films).
Switzerland, 1956. Five teen girls turn the boathouse near their strict boarding school into an amateur brothel, offering paid services of "sexual education"; the boys from another local boarding school immediately sign up as clients. It sounds sleazy, but the sleaze factor is kept pretty low. The film is surprisingly tame, discreet, tender, even charming at times. The premise may be far-fetched, but the way it's played there are many moments that ring true. IMDb lists the original language as "German", but the English dubbing is barely noticeable, because the voice actors who were chosen to dub the film have varied and distinctly European (but still clear-enough) accents. On the negative side, there isn't much of a plot to the film, and the cinematography is excessively "soft-focus". (**1/2)
I have seen this movie a number of times and enjoyed it. It was filmed in the 70's so its doesn't have the film quality of today, but its still good. I thought it was funny. I would love to have a copy of it to keep because I haven't seen it in a few years. I think its important to remember that it was filmed years and years ago in another country. The actors obviously spoke in a European language so the American version has other voices speaking English. Its a cute movie and I think we can all relate to that time in our lives when we were exploring sex and love. I think some people would have liked more nudity. As I recall there are a lot of above the waist views, but not much else. Enjoy!

- AnecdotesMarion Kracht was 14 during filming including a topless shower scene. But in a 2017 interview, she said she wasn't nude in this film and couldn't have been because her parents would never have allowed it. Yet the scene does exist.
- GaffesThe film takes place in the 1950s, yet the girls dance and hula-hoop to a 1968 recording of Bill Haley's "Rock-a-Beatin' Boogie."
