Intimate and complex glimpse into the world of the deaf community. By collaborating closely with community members, the filmmaker creates a space where their voices can be authentically represented. Let’s view sign language as a fully developed language while acknowledging the challenges and stigma it has faced over the years. The film invites the audience to step outside their comfort zones, encouraging them to engage with the stories on the participants’ terms and allowing their lived experiences to resonate without outside interpretation. Our mission transcends mere storytelling or interviews; we aim to immerse ourselves in the daily lives of Deaf individuals. By observing their struggles and joys intimately, we are going to foster a sense of identification that allows audiences to better understand the unfamiliar world of Deaf people. It’s more than a film; it is a movement to challenge stereotypes, celebrate diversity, and foster understanding between the hearing and deaf worlds.
