The Mary Kay Letourneau Story: All-American Girl is a 2000 television movie based on the real-life story of high school teacher Mary Kay Letourneau, played by Penelope Ann Miller. The story follows the saga of a 35-year old teacher who falls in love with a 13-year old student she comes to believe is her soul mate. The 13-year old student is a troubled artist Vili (Omar Anguiano). The teacher is a married woman with four children, and when the relationship becomes serious with Vili, they begin to have inappropriate intercourse over a period of a few months. This affair results in Mary Kay's pregnancy. Mary Kay is sent to prison for the rape of a minor, but is eventually released after pleading her case. Shortly after that, she and Vili are found in the back of a car seat together with a passport, a large sum of money and baby clothes, presumably for the baby girl Vili had fathered with Mary Kay. Mary Kay was given a prison sentence, and was released in August 2004. In October 1998, she bore Vili's second child in prison.
