簡布庫艾是比利時有名的藝術家和電影導演，他在1994年執導的《比利時人的性生活》一片曾飽受國內爭議，反對者稱其顛覆了比利時傳統的性禁忌，他甚至收到過激進分子的死亡威脅。不過，布庫艾也因此名聲大噪，成為比利時藝術界另類的代表。 A writer, Jan Bucquoy, narrates his sex life from his first sexual experience (with a teenage boy a few years older than him) to age 28, where he is living alone having split up with his wife, after having had an affair with a Karma Sutra obsessed model.
