As a young man afflicted with severe autism, expectations for Nicolas are miniscule. So debilitating is his ailment that he lives in a world of his own. Unable to comprehend the interactive social graces that bind us together as human beings, Nicolas is isolated and alone.
As a child with little hope for any meaningful improvement, Nicolas is institutionalized at eight years of age. There he languishes for a dozen years, further stifled by the facilities "warehouse" mentality. However, approaching twenty years of age everything is about to change for Nicolas. An unexpected catalyst is about to enter his life in the form of a young nursing student, named Kelli. She stumbles upon his unique affinity for music, giving her a chance to penetrate his autistic isolation and unlock his extraordinary hidden potential.
Is it possible that for the first time in his life Nicolas might be able to truly experience the world around him? Will music along with Kelli's instinctive compassion and guidance be enough to propel Nicolas on a journey of personal evolution? If so, he could conceivably awaken to feelings he has never encountered before; curiosity, happiness, affection and SO MUCH MORE
