Tamahine(Nancy Kwan) is a beautiful Tahitian girl without a care in
the world. When her father passes away, she is sent away to England
to live with her uncle(Dennis Price), who is the headmaster of a
stuffy old all-boys public school. Unlike the people on her South
Seas island, who are warm and loving, she finds the natives of this
North Sea island to be a bit frigid and repressed. Soon after
arriving, however, her exotic looks and her artless ways begin to
wreak havoc with both students and teachers alike. One student (John
Frasier) in particular takes a more than academic interest in her. As
the wise-innocent who punctures the hypocrisy of British middle-class
morality, Nancy Kwan as Tamahine is naturally placed in a number of
comic situations. She plays the role with a kittenish appeal that few
others could match.
