Passion Flower Hotel (also known as Leidenschaftliche Blümchen) is a 1978 comedy film featuring the erotic ventures of schoolgirls residing at a private boarding school. It was directed by André Farwagi. It stars Nastassja Kinski as one of the schoolgirls, in her third feature film.
The plot was loosely based on the novel Passion Flower Hotel by Rosalind Erskine (real name Roger Erskine Longrigg). It involves various attempts by the girls to lose their virginity with the boys in the school across the lake. It begins with the girls comparing breast size and ends with a wild party with a Bill Haley classic "See You Later Alligator" as the background theme. During this scene Deborah Collins (Kinski) finally has sex with Frederick Sinclair (Sundquist) in a romantic setting. She is expelled and the other girls feel that everything will be so sad and boring without her. She informs the headmistress that she will tell everyone that the school is run by disreputable teachers if she expels the other girls. She departs on a train after kissing Frederick goodbye.
