Storyline
Paulette Gil is a very engaged teacher. When she realizes that her pupil Kip has problems she takes special care for him. But Kip interprets it in the wrong way and tells his mates that he had an affair with Paulette. Then he commits suicide and the rumours draw Paulette into court. Written by Volker Boehm
A teacher is accused of sleeping with her student who later kills himself. The two versions of what happened are interesting to contrast.
Gail O'Grady is pretty and sympathetic.
