520    After three years in the Peace Corps, James, a young 
       speech therapist, joins the faculty of a school for the 
       deaf, where he is to teach lip-reading. He meets Sarah, a 
       school dropout, totally deaf from birth, and estranged 
       both from the world of hearing and from those who would 
       compromise to enter that world. Fluent in sign language, 
       James tries, with little success, to help Sarah, but 
       gradually the two fall in love and marry. At first their 
       relationship is a happy and glowing one, as the gulf of 
       silence between them seems to be bridged by their desire 
       to understand each other's needs and feelings, but discord
       soon develops as Sarah becomes militant for the rights of 
       the deaf and rejects any hint that she is being patronized
       and pitied. In the end the chasm between the worlds of 
       sound and silence seems almost too great to cross, but 
       love and compassion hold the hope of reconciliation, and a
       deeper, fuller understanding of differences that, in the 
       final essence, can unite as well as divide.
