Description
During the 1970\'s, a prominent Vancouver high school initiated Quest, a one
semester outdoor education program. But for teacher Tom Ellison, Quest was
more than just an outdoor program. It was an opportunity to conduct his own
private brand of sex education with a continuing supply of female students.

For many Quest students, massages, skinny-dipping, and sexually charged comments
from teachers were simply the expected. Many students were ferociously devoted
to the charismatic teacher, so Tom had his pick of girls to experience their
first \"love\" with him. For other teachers in the school and for parents, the
rumours about Quest and its three male leaders were better left alone.

School of Secrets is a story of self-redemption for those women, who after
years of tormented silence, decided to come forward. This riveting documentary
traces the outcome of the complaints filed to the Vancouver Sex Crimes Unit and
the investigation that brought Ellison to trial in the fall of 2006. It also
delves into the cautionary implications for the parents, the school and the
community that turned a deaf ear to the rumours.

School of Secrets is produced and directed by Melanie Wood and produced by
Eunice Lee, of Bossy Boots Productions & Stranger Productions (Vancouver). The
film was commissioned by CBC Newsworld and is a world television premiere.
