It is the summer of 1963. It is the time of The Beatles and President Kennedy. It is the time when young Richard has finished at school. But his teacher Major Breeze is trying to persuade him to go to University, and there is also Judith, who believes that Richard's education should continue along different lines. Richard's innocence becomes a battleground for two formidable opponents.
