The last in Desmond Wilcox's series of stories that focus on aspects of the human spirit.

Joanne and Sarah Robinson are bright, attractive teenagers on the brink of university education and choosing careers for the rest of their lives. This is an achievement for any youngster, more so for these two - they are both profoundly deaf. Their mother, Kathy, fought to give them speech and equipped them to take their place in the hearing world. They went to hearing schools, struggled to keep up - and succeeded. But now they have discovered the language and culture of the deaf world. They may want to live in both - to span two cultures. Can they? And will the rest of us let them?

A Wilcox Bulmer production for BBCtv
