Lætitia Carton
2015 - France - Couleur - 90'
This film is addressed to my friend Vincent, who died ten years ago. Vincent was Deaf. He had introduced me to his language, culture and his world. Through his life, a particular story, but which is also that of thousands of other Deaf people, I dig to the roots of the difficulty of being suffered by the Deaf: the “banning” of sign language for over a century, the difficulty of growing up in this language, even today, and the suffering that results, made up of isolation, denial and incomprehension.
