A family scene showing parents reading to their baby in a wooden crib. A bearded man in a dark sweatshirt sits beside the crib holding an infant, while a woman in a light green knit sweater leans over the crib rail, gesturing expressively using sign language as she reads from a colorful children's book. The setting appears to be a warm, cozy nursery with wooden paneling and soft lighting.

About Deaf

An intimate and emotional drama about the challenges of starting a family. Miriam Garlo stars as Ángela, a deaf pottery artist, who has to find her own way through the difficulties of pregnancy and raising a daughter in a world that lacks support for the hearing-impaired.

Tender, moving and brilliantly acted, Deaf is Eva Libertad’s feature debut, showcasing the director’s talent for capturing heartfelt, raw stories with an openness and humanity that is profoundly moving.
