Silent Child

                                                  Silent Child (United Kingdom)

The Silent Child (United Kingdom) was one of the five Oscar nominated short films, all of which I have seen at a local independent "art house" theatre. The Silent Child is about Libby, an undisciplined four years old Deaf girl living in a world of silence with a middle class hearing family that doesn't know how to deal with her until a social worker taught her to communicate in sign language. It went on to win an Oscar.

I give this film "Silent Child" a Thumb Up!.
