Hear and Now
Available on Prime Video, Hulu, Max
After 65 years without sound, what would it be like to hear waves crashing, birds chirping--or even your children's voices--for the first time? Award-winning filmmaker Irene Taylor Brodsky seeks the answer in this touching film that chronicles her parents' journey into a world of sound. Deaf since birth, Sally and Paul Taylor made the decision at age 65 to undergo risky cochlear implant surgery, the only operation of its kind that can restore a sense. The result follows the couple's complex journey from the silent world they knew to a new and often profoundly challenging world of sound.
