(Géza von Radványi, 1958)
First U.S. Screening In 20 Years!
An orphaned teenager (the legendary Romy Schneider) is sent to an oppressive boarding school and soon falls madly in love with her sympathetic teacher (Lilli Palmer), whose tender loving care is misunderstood with tragic results. The story of their passionate and scandalous love affair unfolds in artful, glorious color, and remains one of the most unusual and bold films to emerge from post-war Germany.
