In life, only facts are needed: the children at Mr. Gradgrind's school are strictly instructed to suppress their imaginations and focus solely on harsh reality. They reside in a smoky, troubled industrial town where entertainment is scarce and grudges are strong. The impact of Gradgrind's teachings on his own children, Tom and Louisa, is especially significant, leaving them unprepared to handle the unpredictable emotions of the human heart. Fortunately, they find solace in Sissy Jupe, a friend who, despite the challenges she faces, maintains her kind and compassionate nature as the daughter of a circus performer.
