Only I Can Hear

A feature documentary about CODA (Children of Deaf Adults)

In the American Midwest, three hearing teenagers come of age in the vibrant, raucous Deaf community. With feet in both the hearing world and Deaf-world —yet fully at home in neither— the young women seek identity through their own enigmatic, shared experience.
