Cast

Plot

At the National Institute For The Deaf and Dumb in Paris, a barely clothed and dirty young boy, found in a forest, unable to speak, communicate or function in society, was admitted. Christened Victor by the hospital staff, his case was taken up by Doctor Itard, a lone physician, who had an unyielding dedication to re-integrating the lad into society. But the road to tame the beast was a rocky one and Itard would have to work tirelessly to teach Victor how to reclaim his place in the world...even if it meant staking his reputation on it! A confrontation of Rousseau's noble savage with Western scientific rationalism!!
