Through a blend of vignettes, music, and sign language, this short film narrates the story of Ben, a hearing man, and Aaron, who is deaf, exploring their unique relationship.
Sign is a beautifully expressive gay short film about a relationship between a deaf man and a hearing man told almost entirely through sign language and visual storytelling. Andrew Keenan-Bolger avoids unnecessary dialogue, allowing gestures, facial expression and physical distance to carry the romance. The result is sweet, accessible and genuinely affecting.
