Deaf (12A)
2025 Spain
Dir. Eva Libertad

Living in rural Spain, where she works in a pottery studio, Angela, who is deaf, and her hearing partner Hector, are thrilled at the prospect of having their first baby. They are also very aware that there is a 50 percent chance their baby will be deaf, but they won’t be able to find out for sure until after the child is born. The film portrays the realities of being a deaf parent to an infant. Angela cannot hear her baby cry, is unable to talk or sing to comfort baby Ona but is determined to be the best mother she can. A compelling drama that that brings home the extraordinary implications of deafness in a hearing world.
