Plot: This 1965 film version of Elizabeth Kata's novel became an instant commercial success.

When Gordon Ralfe, a handsome, hard-working black man encounters Selina, a blind white girl, he befriends the lonely woman. Her only true friend, Gordon introduces Selina to a whole world beyond the confines of her deprived home life. But given the current racial climate, Gordon's afraid to tell Selina the truth about his color, fearing she'll reject him. As time passes, Gordon grows closer to Selina, much to his brother's consternation. Though he and Selina have fallen in love, Gordon withholds his true feelings from her, knowing they could never live together peacefully in a racist society.
