written by Marc Arthur
Chery and directed by Zeinabu
Davis 92 minutes, back and white, 16mm.
This film is about love between a deaf woman
and a hearing man endures through time. Set
in turn-of-the century and present-day Chicago,
this unique drama captures the spirit of the
silent film era, exploring the conflicts that
arise when society and its afflications are
imposed upon lovers existing at different points
in time. |
