If I Could Tell You

If I Could Tell You is an evocative inquiry into the significance of language in our shared human experience. Following the journeys of two friends, one deaf and one hearing, and their unique relationship to Indian Sign Language (ISL), the film includes diverse perspectives from deaf and queer communities, and explores how various manifestations of visual language and expression help us understand agency, autonomy, and care.

Made in collaboration with artist Pakhi Sen, this documentary pushes the boundaries of storytelling by blending diverse media forms, including animation and artistic performances.  

Please note that the screening on December 22 will have the audio described version.
