The Sound of the Rainbow
The film’s plot is based on rehearsals at a theatre for the deaf, showing the complex working process of hard-of-hearing directors and actors. They constantly search for forms, images, and unique ways to convey the entire dramaturgy to the audience without a single word. It is reminiscent of early silent cinema — a universal, international language of gesture and movement. In addition, between rehearsals, we see the “backstage” life of the theatre: the work and daily routines of deaf lighting technicians, makeup artists, and costume designers.
