Silence

Directed by Grant Knaus

A deaf child in rural Guatemala arrives at school with no language at all.

The film

Silence will follow one child through their first two years at one of the only schools in the region teaching LENSEGUA, Guatemala's national sign language — from the day they arrive without words to the day a personality surfaces.

The film builds on a completed proof of concept and an established partnership with Guatemala Deaf Ministries. The goal: a finished feature, a festival premiere, and an impact campaign that puts the film to work for the school and the children in it.
