Half His Age: A Teenage Tragedy

A Teenage Tragedy
Mr. Davies (Charles Dera) is your stereotypical handsome high-school teacher – the one that all the school girls have a crush on. Problem is, Mr. Davies hasn’t been able to keep his hands out of the cookie jar. For the past few months, he’s been having an affair with one of his students, the beautiful but naive 18-year-old Lola (Jill Kassidy). The daughter of a rich businessman, Lola has fallen completely in love and thinks the couple are going to run away together. Mr. Davies, on the other hand, knows that they will need to break up … especially before he gets caught by the school board or his wife (Cherie DeVille.) But their affair is sent into a tailspin after another student, the socially awkward Heather (Kristen Scott), discovers their secret and decides to use it to her demented family’s advantage. Also starring Small Hands and Xander Corvus, this taboo drama reminds us all of what it’s like to be young, in love, and losing your mind.
