action

The pretty but a little shy Monika is a student in a classy boarding school. She plans to stay on site for the upcoming autumn vacation to do nature studies with four friends. They want to research the nature of frogs in order to take part in a “ Jugend forscht ” competition with their findings . But soon the pubescent girls are only interested in the good-looking son of the boarding school director, who has just arrived to pay his mother a visit. The girls use all their charms to seduce Johannes.

To their horror, the five girls learn that shy Johannes wants to become a priest and has therefore contacted Monsignor Viktor Berend, the director's brother. This encourages him to study theology . From then on, Monika and the sixteen-year-olds try everything so that the young man does not get lost in the women's world. After a long back and forth, Monika finally succeeds in winning the heart of the shy and inexperienced Johannes for herself ...
