The absorbing tale of a daring experiment performed by neurosurgeons on a mentally retarded man, Charlie Gordon. We see life through Charlie's diary, as he travels out of the dark cell of his mind and finds himself lost in a maze where intelligence does not open all the closed doors and where betrayal lurks behind friendship. A great feeling of warmth and humanity as we discover Charlie's trials and disappointments.
