Dr. Matthew Clark is the head of a state institution for intellectually disabled children. Jean Hansen, a former music teacher anxious to give her life some meaning, joins the staff of the hospital. Jean, who tries to shelter the children with her love, suspiciously regards Dr. Clark's stern training methods. She becomes emotionally involved with 12-year-old Reuben Widdicombe, who has been abandoned by his divorced parents.
Editor's Verdict
"The provided plot summary for 'A Child Is Waiting' focuses entirely on the institutional setting, the relationship between Dr. Clark and Jean Hansen, and their interactions with intellectually disabled children, specifically Reuben. There is no mention of the Christmas season, holiday themes, or related iconography in the synopsis. Therefore, based on the available information, it does not qualify as a Christmas movie."
