You Shall Hear

The film focuses on Mila Ebert, who is just under two years old and deaf. An examination reveals that her auditory nerve is developed, suggesting that with a cochlear implant and support, she could achieve nearly normal hearing and speech. This opens up a discussion about the value of different ways of life and the role of the state in such personal decisions.

You Shall Hear raises important questions about autonomy, societal norms, and what constitutes a 'normal' life. The narrative challenges viewers to consider the implications of medical interventions and the responsibilities of caregivers and authorities. The film's poignant exploration of these issues makes it significant for anyone interested in contemporary social debates and medical ethics.
