"Set in Freedom, a fictional small Kansas town, in 1956, the film focuses on Evelyn Wyckoff, a lonely and depressed 35-year-old high school Latin teacher who no longer finds any satisfaction in her work. She is undergoing therapy with Wichita psychiatrist Dr. Steiner but making little progress. One day she is accosted by Rafe Collins, an African American scholarship student who cleans classrooms at the end of the school day. When the young man makes lewd suggestions and begins to unzip his pants, Evelyn flees in a panic but decides to tell no one what transpired, hoping it was an isolated incident.
The following day, Rafe approaches Evelyn again and rapes her on her desk. Ashamed and fearful of the public disgrace she will suffer if she reports being violated by a black man, she chooses to remain silent. Rafe forces himself upon her on a daily basis, and eventually Evelyn, craving attention and mistaking their sadomasochistic relationship for true love, begins to look forward to their trysts."
Being 1979, the critics panned it as racist. My thoughts it's was way ahead of it's time.
