Summary:
This film explores the extraordinary world of deafblindness through four characters. Adam and Mark are 12-year-old boys born deaf and blind. With no understanding of language, how do their parents communicate with them? Gaela and Graham, two remarkable deafblind adults who became deaf after childhood, can describe their lives and thoughts. They take us into their extraordinary world and we see how they are able to live adventurous and fulfilled lives despite their devastating disability. Music for the film is by Evelyn Glennie, the acclaimed percussionist who is profoundly deaf herself.
