One day Sammy and his younger sister Ellie happen upon a cabin where Alice, a young, partially deaf girl with epilepsy is being kept by her abusive stepfather. The three soon become friends and hope to get Alice an education and help her escape from the torture she undergoes daily.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly devastating story about children discovering compassion in the face of cruelty, anchored by genuine performances and set against the hardship of the Depression. The film insists that friendship and dignity matter most when circumstances strip them away.
