Anybody seen a new little German film called Beyond Silence? Nobody in it whom I have heard of, but it's a charming film. The director also played the mother of the female lead who played a musically talented teenager both of whose parents were deaf mutes. The movie explored relationships among the family including the grandparents and a musician aunt who had no children and involved herself in the muscial development of the girl. I would think the movie would be a must-see for deaf people but with appeal for others also.
