The Story Of Esther Costello.

Margaret Landi (Joan Crawford) finds an emotional outlet in patronizing a deaf, dumb, and blind Irish girl named Esther Costello. Esther's disabilities are the result of a childhood trauma and are psychosomatic rather than physical. As Costello makes progress with Braille and sign language, she is seen as an example of triumph over adversity.
