Documentary: Sound and Fury (2000, 77 minutes)

An informative and emotionally involving portrait of an important subculture, Sound and Fury allows us a glimpse inside the world of the deaf community, while dealing with a controversial operation that some people in that community are resisting. Cochlear ear implants have allowed many deaf people to hear and learn to speak, but many in the deaf community who are happy with its supportive and nurturing atmosphere see the operation as a threat. Sound and Fury was screened in competition at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival.--All Rovi.  Admission is free. Sponsored by the Friends of the Cranford Public Library!
