Although "Report" is not part of the title this film is a highly typical example of the Report-Film, this distinctly German subgenre of sex film. The subject is women's emancipation, or rather: women's role in West Germany's society of the time.
If this sounds to you like an odd basis for a sex film then you are on the right track. This is an oddity. They don't make films like this any more, and frankly it is amazing that they were ever made. As so often in the episodic Report-Films, some episodes are dramatic, some tragic, some romantic, some violent, and several are comedic (including slapstick comedy). To round it all off, there are the ubiquitous interviews on the street, plus a completely bogus documentary episode.
Despite the exploitative treatment some episodes deal with real issues, but then others only make the mind boggle. One episode of the latter kind sees a woman's sexual frustration increased by the noisy love-making of her flatmate. Understandably, she tries to relieve her urges with a vibrator, but then this implement packs up. To solve the problem she then calls an electrician (Yes, Jim - this is real life, but not as we know it) who eventually does repair the device, but only after providing her temporarily with a quite lively replacement. For anyone familiar with the peculiar probabilities of this alternative universe it should not come as a surprise that he had been previously servicing the flatmate.
