The Silent Child – ipasm.com

The Silent Child is a gorgeous and touching short movie about a deeply deaf 4 years old girl named Libby (played by Maisie Sly) that exists in a soundless life up until a social worker named Joanne (played by Rachel Shenton) educates her on how to use sign language to communicate with others. The other actors in The Silent Child are Anna Barry played Nancy; Rachel Fielding played Sue; Annie Cusselle played Pip; Sam Rees played Seb; Philip York played Paul. The Silent Child is scripted by Rachel Shenton (from her own personal understandings when her parent became deaf) and directed by Chris Overton.
