The Silent Chaos

documentary

Doc on the plight of deaf people in Congo. They are seen through the lens of idiotic superstitions and suffer social discrimination, rejection and isolation.

Unfortunately the film attempted an artistic presentation with endless footage of the landscapes and cityscapes of that part of the world. At first this was interesting but it quickly paled and came across as meaningless filler. After a half hour I found it impossible to keep my attention focused on the film and gave up.
