This melodramatic story centers around two college graduates who share a passion for poetry and literature. The opening scene is a poetry competition where the two protagonists meet for the first time. It is implied that there is an instant mutual admiration formed between the two. She loses her eye sight due to a rare neurological disorder. A "plutonic" love affair blossoms between the two characters. A series of misfortunes follows (a bit over the top in my opinion) and the movie finally concludes with an ambiguous ending.
