    Jane Richards (Dorothy Dandridge), a fourth-grade teacher, is concerned about young C.T. (Philip Hepburn), a student whose indifference to school has even the principal (Belafonté) calling him a backwards child. Troubles as typical as a schoolyard brawl and as tragic as a classmate's death drive C.T. further into his shell. But Jane perseveres, hoping to help her student develop -- the same as a caterpillar in a cocoon, C.T. lets down his guard and turns into a butterfly.
