Locked in a frightening, lonely world of silence and darkness since infancy, 7-year-old Helen Keller has never seen the sky, heard her mother's voice or expressed her innermost feelings. Then Annie Sullivan, a 20-year-old teacher from Boston arrives. Having just recently regained her own sight, the no-nonsense Annie reaches out to Helen through the power of touch - the only tool they have in common - and leads her bold pupil on a miraculous journey from fear and isolation to happiness and light.

A Gritty Portrayal

This film was made when real life could be portrayed without a strong dose of sentimentality. I had not seen this film since I was quite young and I am so glad I decided to watch it again now.
There are some long scenes which reflect the suffering of Helen and the determination of Annie. They are harrowing yet they really take the viewer on this difficult journey.
I defy anyone who does not shed a tear in the end, the love and gratitude showed to the teacher by the pupil in the final scene is touching and real.
