Hear Me

Posted on Sunday, January 17th, 2010 at 9:00 am

HEAR ME is a light- hearted love story between Tian Kuo, an eager delivery boy, and Yang Yang, a gentle street performer. Yang Yang and her hearing- impaired sister, Xiao Peng, are training for a chance of a lifetime - the chance to compete in the Deaflympics. Yang Yang is a kind yet strong-willed girl who supports Xiao Peng by performing on the streets. Even though Yang Yang must work for her living expenses and Xiao Pengs training fees, she nonetheless remains optimistic about the future. Tian Kuo, on the other hand, is a carefree and eager delivery boy for a restaurant which his parents own. On a fateful day, Tian Kuo met Yang Yang while delivering meal boxes to Xiao Peng’s swimming team, and fell in love immediately. Yang Yang, accidentally mistaking Tian Kuo to be hearing- impaired, became hesitant about the difficulties that they may encounter in the future, and refrained from Tian Kuo’s pursuits. What ensues is a story of love, companionship, communication, understanding, and family.

Deaf-related stuff /issues always get my attention. Any xtomicers remember this arty indie film we watched together many years back? The one about sign language in different parts of the world. What was the title of the movie?
