“For the future deaf generation, I encourage you not to be afraid of trying different things. Explore and follow your passion.”
Youmee Lee, Director of ‘Rite of Identity’ (USA)
“Rite of Identity is a 2D animated film about a deaf child, Hana, who has exceptional artistic talent but struggles with an overwhelming soundscape. Hana represents a collection of deaf people’s childhood stories. The film is shaped by the American Sign Language (ASL) poetry format and is loaded with deaf symbols and motifs.”
‘Rite of Identity’ will be shown as part of Deaffest on Tour’s film screenings – taking place next at Cornwall Mini Deaffest, on Saturday the 23rd of September 2023.
