Teresa is dropped off at a home for wayward girls by a "friend of her mother's". The school (wannabe prison) is run by Mademoiselle Fourneau (Lilli Palmer), a strict headmistress who uses spies among the students to ferret out secrets and information.
Teresa strikes up a friendship with Fourneau's son Louis, who is frequently reminded that the girls there are no good for him.
When girls begin disappearing and her torment at the hands of Fourneau's flunkies gets to be too much, Teresa plans her escape.
Top notch European horror that would influence genre classics including SUSPIRIA and PIECES. — Dan Taylor
