Documentary: Sound and Fury

     There is a very good documentary about the Cochlear Implant Debate that can really help people to see what it is really like for families when deciding if a family member should get a Cochlear Implant. It is called Sound and Fury. Sound and Fury was released in 2000 about two American families with young deaf children and their conflict over whether or not to give the children Cochlear Implants, surgically implanted devices that may improve their ability to hear but threaten their Deaf Identity. The film was nominated for several awards. I highly suggest watching it not only because it is informative on Deaf Culture but also because it is an all-around great film to watch. I really loved watching it when I took my ASL Classes in High School. I have attached a YouTube trailer video about the movie in case you are interested in finding out more about it.
