Description
Due to a congenital defect, the village of El-Sayed in the middle of the Negev Desert has the largest percentage of deaf people in the world. The people of El-Sayed do not consider deafness a handicap. They have developed a unique sign language making it the most popular communication method among both the deaf and the hearing. The tranquility of the village is interrupted by Salim,father of three-year old Muhammad, who decides to have his deaf son receive a cochlear implant, which is offered by the Israeli health plan. This film follows the impact of this advanced medical process on a traditional culture as it gives an intimate portrait of a child's discovery of sound.
