THE PERRINE STORY

Overview

After losing her parents, girl named Perrine travels to search for her grandfather. She finally finds him, who is blind and lonely-living in a castle-like mansion, but unable to make him realize who she is, so she becomes his secretary and waits for an opportunity to introduce herself as his granddaughter. As Perrine treats him with kindness, the grandfather gradually regains his warm heart and kindness. One day, a famous ophthalmologist arrives from Paris and an operation allows the old man to see his granddaughter’s face for one moment: Perrine looks exactly like his son.

Based on the novel “Nobody’s Girl” by Hector Malot
