William Hurt plays a sensitive teacher of deaf children who falls for the lovely yet defiant Marlee Martin. Filmed in the Maritime provinces of Canada, Children has a warm, picturesque look to it that goes perfectly with the touching tale of love's triumph over painful skin conditions--sorry, I mean deafness...
