Description

Elliott lives in an orphanage, his days spent gazing out of the window at birds in a tree or staring into a white wall. He is stuck, confined to a wheelchair by those who care for him. But when Jim arrives, blind and mute but also headstrong, Elliott sees a chance for escape. Jim's arrival sets off a chain reaction, challenging the restrictive rules that govern life on the ward. As Elliott watches, he begins to see a way out of his own confinement. With Jim by his side, Elliott starts to defy the Sisters who run the ward, and in doing so, finds a sense of freedom he never thought possible. A powerful and moving story about friendship, defiance, and the human spirit, Patience is a poignant exploration of life on the margins.
