The Miracle Worker Plot and Cast
This true story follows Helen Keller, a 7-year-old trapped in a frightening, lonely world of silence and darkness—she has never seen the sky, heard her mother's voice, or expressed her innermost feelings. Annie Sullivan, a no-nonsense 20-year-old teacher from Boston who has just recently regained her own sight, uses touch, the only tool they share, to lead her bold pupil from fear and isolation to happiness and light.
