Ray Charles (playing himself) performs for sightless children in a London school, and meets young David Harrison (Piers Bishop), a ten-year-old recently blinded by sickness. Charles takes a personal interest in David when he realizes that his mother Peggy (Mary Peach) is over-protecting her son. Peggy's lover Steve Collins (Tom Bell) is a pianist and composer, and Ray Charles hires him to arrange music for a European tour. Yet Peggy seems to have little confidence in Steve's career. Ray knows of a Parisian eye surgeon who may be able to restore David's sight but Peggy balks at taking her son out of his routine. Complicating things is the seductive fashion designer Gina Graham (Dawn Addams), a playgirl with romantic designs on Steve.
