Making Noise in Silence explores the richness and complexities of Deaf culture from the perspective of two Korean high school students who attend the California School for the Deaf, Fremont. Born and raised in South Korea, Jeongin Mun and Min Wook Cho have strong ties to their Korean heritage and learned Korean as their first language. However, what separates Jeongin and Min Wook from most children of immigrant families is that they are also deaf. When their families moved to the United States, their deafness automatically put them into an entirely separate cultural group with its own language, customs, and history. "Making Noise in Silence is a sensitive and thoughtful documentary that would be an excellent addition to Disability Studies and Deaf Studies classes. Through the personal experiences of two Korean-American high school students, the film illustrates numerous key concepts, such as intersectional identity, oralism, multiple perspectives on deafness within the family, and the empowering impact of being in a culturally Deaf environment... It would also be useful in Asian-American Studies classes and other curriculum exploring the culture and history of California." - Annie Tucker, Ph.D., Lecturer, University of California, Los Angeles
