Immensely honored to share my film The Beauty of Being Deaf was selected for two film festivals this morning! This project remains one of my favorites pieces due to the community and healing conversations the film instigated. It will be showing at newfest (October 15th) and cucalorus (November 10th) this year! Check it out if you haven’t seen it already 🤟🏼 As always, a HUGE THANK YOU to all who put their hearts into this project.
