Synopsis by Dan Pavlides

A dedicated teacher tries to enlighten his racially prejudiced students in the days following World War II. When the class goes on a retreat at a pre-military facility, one student is killed by one of his classmates. The teacher incurs the wrath of parents for his liberal attitudes and is reviled by most students. The teacher soon emigrates to Africa where he believes his skill can make a difference in a more tolerant society.
