To celebrate the National Week of Deaf People, Riverside is screening this uproarious box office smash-hit about family ties, the joy of music and breaking free.
In the Bélier family, everyone is deaf, except dutiful 16-year-old Paula. She acts as an indispensable interpreter for her parents and younger brother, especially in the running of the family dairy farm.
Though her salt-of-the-earth father has decided to run for mayor – spurred on by her vivacious but over-involved mother, Paula’s attentions are very much elsewhere. She’s witnessed the handsome new boy at school sign up for the choir, and impulsively joined too. It’s not long before her music teacher discovers her considerable talent, however his encouragement only exacerbates the matter of Paula’s independence…
