Philip Ransome, a northern English boy about 10 years old, has been mute since age 3 and spends his days roaming the moors alone. His parents despair of a cure. Philip (Mark Lester, Oliver!) is a young autistic boy living in the countryside of Northern England. With no explanation for his condition, Philip's parents search for answers without any success. When Philip encounters a rare white pony with blue eyes, he ends up meeting The Moorman (John Mills, Ryan's Daughter), a retired colonel who is sympathetic to his condition, and, shortly thereafter, Diana (Fiona Fullerton, A View to a Kill), a young girl his age. With the newfound friendships in his life, Philip begins to open up, but will it last for long? Newly remastered. Director: Richard C. Sarafian Writer: David Rook (novel) Stars: John Mills, Mark Lester, Gordon Jackson
