What good is a movie about DEAF people if it isn't captioned? I was really looking forward to seeing this documentary as it presents a view about a particular group of individuals that are hidden behind the scenes of the issue of sexual abuse within the church. I could not watch it. At first it shows students in an oral/aural setting in school so I waited to see if it would then go on to interviews in ASL (American Sign Language). Indeed it did, the individuals who were interviewed used ASL but if there were questions being asked, the interviewer was not on screen signing the questions to them. Then it goes on to show interviews with another individual and church scenes and there is no open or closed captioning. This is an important issue that needs to be seen/heard and is finally brought out into the open audience and yet without captioning, it is closed to the very community to which it is addressed. I am very disappointed that I was not able to watch this documentary because it has not been made accessible to the Deaf community by providing captioning for us. This is 2015, there is no reason why captioning could not be provided for this documentary.
