Gesto
Synopsis
Antonio is 18 years old and is profoundly deaf. He wants to study cinema outside Portugal and become a director. And make movies for everyone, deaf and listeners. This is your dream that, like all dreams, has a price: to question himself and the community to which he belongs. At the same time, she lives her first love with Irina, a deaf young woman who doesn't understand why he wants to leave school and his country so much. For the first time in his life, Anthony's world is falling apart. But it may be worth losing the world to conquer the universe where deaf and hearing listen in the same gesture.
