Calvin Becker's strict fundamentalist upbringing means he's never
seen a film, watched television or danced. He even has to hide his
five second-hand copies of Mad magazine in the attic. Now he and
his family - his embarrassingly devout missionary parents and his
sisters, the tyrannical 18 year-old Janet and the angelic Rachael -
are on their modest annual skiing holiday in Switzerland. For the
Beckers, the Hotel Riffelberg had always provided a safe haven from
the jazz-loving sinners who congregate further down the mountain in
Zermatt, but this is 1966, the year of peace, love and the Beatles,
and the world is changing. As is the irrepressible Calvin... In his
innocent 14 year-old body the hormones are raging, awakening a
volcanic sexual curiosity and he willingly succumbs to the ample
charms of Eva, the young waitress who introduces him to ecstasies
beyond his wildest dreams. But then Calvin's mother catches him
supposedly in the act and things start to go awry, triggering a
climactic end to his childhood (and the family holiday).
