Summer and Lilacs

Self-destruction and sexual addiction mar the otherwise perfect affair between high school teacher Mark Lily and his ex-student, Susan Albright. Spurned by his apathetic, ambitious wife and seduced by a 19 year old living from impulse to impulse, Mark's life descends into chaos amidst a destroyed marriage and damaged career. That's nothing compared to holding vigil at the bedside of a Jane Doe whose struggle for life brings home the startling realization that real love comes once in a lifetime, no matter how flawed, and that sometimes we realize it too late.
