If you could make your deaf child hear, would you? Academy Award-nominated Sound and Fury follows the intimate, heart-rending tale of the Artinians, an extended family with deaf and hearing members across three generations. Together they confront a technological device that can help the deaf to hear but may also threaten deaf culture - and their bonds with each other. For Peter Artinian and his wife, both of whom are deaf, a surgical ear implant for their five-year-old daughter Heather means a choice between two worlds - an unfamiliar hearing world and the deaf world, a robust culture in its own right united by a uniquely visual and artistic language. Heather Artinian - precocious, vivacious, and avidly curious about implant surgery - is caught between her deaf parents and her hearing grandparents, as they argue passionately about her future. The debate is sometimes silent, but by no means quiet. When all is done, Sound and Fury speaks volumes about the choices we make and the battles we fight in order to be heard..

Movie Reviews

Reeling Reviews - 10/10 by Laura CliffordA provocative documentary that is sure to make its audience consider things about deafness and handicaps in general that it might not otherwise.
Reeling Reviews - 10/10 by Robin CliffordOne of the most intelligent and thought-provoking documentaries I have ever seen.
Boston Globe - 10/10 by Loren KingRarely does a movie combine so much genuine human drama with such vivid exemplifications of "identity politics" and other sociocultural issues.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleA documentary with the emotional power of the very best in narrative film. It has characters impossible to forget, moments impossible to shake and an ending that leaves the audience both moved and rattled.
Entertainment Weekly - 10/10 by Owen GleibermanA work of intimate and wrenching humanity.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenWhen a documentary makes a spectator want to jump out of his seat and throw tomatoes at some of the performers, you know that the film maker has captured the imagination of the audience.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by John PetrakisBoth intellectually absorbing and emotionally gripping.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Reece PendletonMost fascinating about this PBS documentary is the unflinching look at the dynamics of the three generations involved.
Portland Oregonian - 9/10 by Kim MorganPerfectly situated in the maelstrom of the personal and the political, Sound and Fury creates a space for serious, obstinate contention.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kevin ThomasJosh Aronson's Sound and Fury, as illuminating and comprehensive as it is heart-wrenching, is an example of what the documentary can accomplish at its most vital and engaging.
