Judy Garland plays a compassionate teacher newly employed within a small town school for disabled children. Instantly bonding with an autistic boy called Reuben, Jean believes that a reunion with his absent parents could be fundamental for his development. But the school's authority figures begin to disapprove of her modern methods and her friendship with the alienated, helpless Reuben . With a great cast and superb direction, A Child Is Waiting is a deeply touching drama with a hard-hitting message. (StudioCanal)
