This is not a simple case. There are many issues here, as there are many people deeply committed in the drama and few of them getting things properly sorted out. Even the judge has some difficulty in clearing the way. There is a happy family with two daughters, the youngest being 12 years old, and she is a favourite at school. Her mother usually picks her up after school, but one day she gets detained and phones her eldest daughter to pick up her younger sister instead. She fools around with a boy and forgets about the time, and when she finally reaches the school her little sister isn't there. She is later found in a ditch thrown out of a car, molested and almost beaten to death. We know the transgressor from the beginning, he has a criminal record, and he lives alone with his mum. She is over-protective and lies in court to save her son, who is acquitted. Then the mother of the raped little girl loses control.

There are two mothers' cases here, the mother of the raped little girl and the mother of the perpetrator. Then there is the elder sister who has to live with a burdened conscience for having neglected to collect her little sister in time. Even the perpetrator is a case of its own. Then there is the head mistress of the school who employed him without thoroughly checking his past. Then there is the father of the two girls, who has to bear with all the guilt complexes of the others and check them from running wild. The case is deeply engaging, you can't watch this without becoming involved in the drama, the actors are all perfect, and the music is also exactly enough. Above all, this is a drama for all parents to learn something out of.

Not too bad drama about mother finding justice for her youngest daughter. What more to say about the plot? it's pretty much summarised in the Plot outline above. Lesley Warren puts up a gd act, and so does annette o'toole.
