Born a perfectly bright, healthy child, Helen Keller is now blind and deaf due to a serious illness as a toddler. Locked in her silent world, she is frustrated, aggressive, and spoiled by her parents to keep her calm. In desperation the Keller family hires Anne Sullivan to attempt communication and education for Helen. Once blind herself, Anne is determined to find the key that will open the potential in Helen. Through her persistence, love, and sheer stubbornness she hopes to finally break through Helen’s wall of silence and bring her into the world at last.
