Quiet Signs of Love

A movie that bridges two worlds

Quiet Signs of Love is a short film about two young people – one deaf and the other hearing – and a love that transcends their differences.

Part 1:  Daniel has his eye on the mysterious young Hannah and introduces himself clumsily before realising she is deaf. After a rocky start, love blossoms.

Part 2:  Different attitudes towards Hannah’s deafness threaten to pull the lovers apart. The NRS helps them connect again.

Interview with the star: Bethany Robinson – who plays Hannah – talks about the film and about being deaf in a hearing world.

Background

The film was written and directed by Yannis Nikolakopoulos (Ikonfilm) who also collaborated with Brett Williams (of The Choirboys) on the vibetrack - a soundtrack  that focuses on vibrations for deaf audiences.
