Albert Jakob Welti

A man in his fifties returns from America to his native village. Everyone knows that in the New World he served a lengthy prison sentence for manslaughter. He retreats to an isolated quarry in the woods he inherited. There he lives like a hermit, gruffly disencouraging anyone to come near the place.

The film follows a group of 14 Swiss girls during and after their final exams. It shows their little worries, joys, and conflicts during a time of transition from youth to adulthood.
