Tony Johnston was diagnosed autistic because of oxygen deficiency at birth. Only his younger, normal and sweetly protective brother Ray really understands the 'weird' kid, who regularly strips starkers to enjoy the rain. When their ma, flippantly headstrong waitress and cleaner Janice, discovers Tony's amazing talent as a pianist by ear, she uproots them, u huge sacrifice for Ray, to seeks a place in a reputed Boston school for the handicapped. Although too late and disregarding countless rules, the plea is granted, a piano donated and music teacher Thomas Deblois makes Tony his pet project, while romantically interested in 'Texan tornado' Janice.—KGF Vissers
