Bowman and was adapted from the Jules Eckert Goodman play The Silent Voice[1] by I. K. Freedman and Eve Unsell.

The film tells the story of Franklyn Starr, a gifted musician who becomes embittered after he is stricken with a sudden onslaught of deafness and then suffers the loss of his beloved mother.

Hiking in the woods one day, Starr stumbles upon a group of workers about to set off explosives and, oblivious to their warning cries, is injured in the detonation.

Marjorie Blair, a young woman out horseback riding, comes to his aid, an act that would lead to courtship and marriage.

Starr is happy, for once again life is good; until his cousin Bobby flirts with Marjorie giving him the mistaken impression the two were having an affair.
