A Belgian film website, Heiners Filmseiten, provides a rare and unflinching description of the film's content:

Unlike many Western sex education films that use illustrations or anatomical diagrams, this film utilizes explicit live-action footage to illustrate biological processes. Content Overview

It was within this liberal educational context that the seemingly amateur production company, Studio Landstar, gave Ronald Deronge the funds to create his sole cinematic work. Deronge, a Flemish director, wrote the script with André Singelijn, who, in a curious twist, appears to have been a pharmaceutical professional by day. This small-scale, almost DIY production, likely intended as a classroom aid or a film shown in youth clinics, ended up creating something that has no real parallel. Sexuele Voorlichting , which translates to "Sexual Information," was born: a film that features real prepubescent actors, full-frontal nudity of both children and adults, and a complete absence of the cute, sanitized animations that dominate modern sex ed videos. It is, in every sense, the anti-cartoon.
