Receiver

Ireland, 2019, 14 minutes, Color, English; Turkish subtitled, Turkish closed captions


Director:  Jenny Brady

Music: Steven Hoes

A crossed telephone line propels Receiver into a suite of heated and intimate conversations in which we encounter scenes of protest at a university for deaf students, Q&A cross-fire interrogation, vocal confrontations and lip-reading practice. Receiver considers how we both speak and listen, and the question of who has the right and capacity to be heard.
