I have a wife and two kids ... a thing like this can ruin me !
In a racially mixed American town, a five-year-old black girl falls unnoticed into a hidden, forgotten well on her way to school.

Before hapless, innocent Claude Packard is even found, popular hysteria has him tried and convicted. But is he guilty?
