Throughly enjoyed this hidden gem. The storyline was original and unpredictable. I watched it alone the first time and watched it again with my 17 year old daughter. She loved it as much as I did. It was awkward & poetic at times but with real honesty and raw emotion. It touched on loss on so many levels : the loss of his hearing, the loss of his brother and the loss of the experience & joy of sound. It also touched on mental illness in a very profound way. This movie really puts things into perspective and makes you appreciate things we often take for granted. I was pleasantly surprised at how different this movie was. The acting was enjoyable and well done, the cinematography was beautiful. I will definitely watch it again at some point.
