Synopsis
Cable television film set in 1938. Brother and sister Ellie and Sammy Perkins live in a small town in the Southern States with their grandmother and semi- alcoholic father. Ellie discovers a teenage girl, Alice Guthrie, locked in a shed on a nearby farm and learns that she is hard of hearing and epileptic and so disowned and shut up by her embarrassed stepfather. Ellie resuces her and pays a doctor to treat her, selling her dead mother's locket to pay him. With new friends and better treatment Alice begins to blossom out.
