Have you read the book Cracks by Sheila Kohler or seen the movie with Eva Green?

Could you please tell me what happened to Fiamma, and give me a plot synopsis in as much detail as possible? I borrowed this book from my friend but had to give it back before I was finished. Thank you!|||I saw the movie, and from what i hear, the details differ from the book





I suggest u borrow/buy the book OR see the movie








But heres the spoilers:


Im not sure up to which point u read up to. Im assuming u were at least up to the part where Miss G becomes fascinated and dangerously obsessed with fiamma. Miss G tries very hard to befriend fiamma but fails. She soon realized fiamma embodies who shes been wanting to be instead of her reality, pretending to be worldly. Fiamma slowly and subtly uncovers the persona Miss G has created in the school is fabrication which drives Miss G mad. There was a point where Fiamma becomes accepted by the other girls and they decide to have a dorm party called the Midnight Feast and dress up as characters. I think this idea was Fiammas from one of the books shes read. Miss G gives for them permission to party and eat all night (against the rules) At one point in the night Fiamma drinks much wine and passes out and drops the bottle making a loud sound. Miss G comes to check on them and sees Fiamma's state. She takes Fiamma to her bedroom and tells the girls to clean their dormitory. And the turning point: Miss G cant help herself because her brain cracked and unfortunately violates poor Fiamma while shes passed out. Di happens to peek through the doors to see Miss G kissing Fiamma. I think in the movie, Di mistakenly thinks they are having a love affair. The next day Fiamma threatens to tell the headmaster about wat Miss G did to her. In the movie they show Miss G following Fiamma, tryna ask her to not tell. The other grls see from afar how Miss G is upset and Fiamma running away from the area. Miss G tells Di that fiamma will tell lies about her and get her fired...im not sure why but i thnk that Di still wants to help Miss G. Di rounds up the girls, finds fiamma in the woods and they all begin to beat her. Fiamma says she didnt want those advances from Miss G but to no avail they still beat her (Fuzzy was in protest) At one point Di rips Fiammas inhaler from her neck and throws it on the ground. Fiamma too is on the ground wheezing heavily and then the grls realize something is wrong. They send for help and of course Miss G comes to Fiammas side....they are alone at this point. In the following events, Im sure the book is different from the movie but from my google searches im not sure how different (the book is more horrid apparently) But in the movie Miss G purposely fails to give Fiamma her inhaler and lets her die in her arms. Miss G was all creepy about it too, by kissing the dying grls head and whispering u "werent meant for this world" or some mumbo jumbo. And then she lays fiammas head back down to the ground from her lap and strategically puts the inhaler into fiammas dead hands...and Di sees this from afar, shocked, and Miss G then sees her too....(in the movie this scene was great acting) and by then the other teachers have ran to the scene to help fiamma. So fast forward Di tells the grls about Miss G murdering fiamma and they decide to tell the headmistress. On their way they took a detour to Miss G's room. THey all take their red sashes off and leave them at Miss G's feet. (in the movie they were worn on the waist of the grls to show they are part of the same team or something) Di tells the headmistress the real deal about the molestation and murder and then the headmistress says dumb things about the schools reputation and no criminal charges against Miss G but she will "Take a leave of absence to travel the world to cope with this recent tragedy" Oh injustice. And then the last scene in the movie is of Miss G all alone in her rented apartment, looking depressed, trying to decide which 5 trinkets she should place on her night stand (in the movie the school had a rule that only 5 things can be on ones nightstand) So that goes to show Miss G is following the schools rules even out in the real world. The real world is something she never even encountered. And shes really nuts The End.








I hope that helped, Please let us know if u need more details and if that made any sense. Im curious to know if the movie details are the same in the book ( red sash, 5 trinket rule etc.)
