Through The Visual Lens

Documentary, Short

00:15:10

United Kingdom

Hearing people don't have a full understanding of what deafness really means. The deaf community has its own culture, its own sensorial reality, its own communication. To experience that through TV and film is a great learning opportunity. It could be a major influence on society. Most people get their knowledge through mainstream media, which means that all hearing people could benefit from accurate representations of Deaf culture in film. Even if we are watching something purely for entertainment value, the information we view affects our understanding of our world. Mainstream media holds tremendous power over societal expectations of communities, especially when marginalised. If we want individuals to become more informed and unbiased, that work needs to happen in film. By portraying sign language and Deaf culture in mainstream films, movies could impact the social understanding of this marginalised identity.
