Summary
At a boarding school in Marseilles, a teacher, Merlusse, finds himself the constant target of practical jokes from his unruly pupils.  Undeterred, Merlusse perseveres with his out-dated teaching methods, but still the boys tease him, making fun of his unusual appearance.  Despite his outward severity, Merlusse reveals his true nature when he gives each of his boarders who cannot go home for Christmas a small present.  Touched by this act of generosity, the boys suddenly change their attitude towards Merlusse...
