Deaf Culture Film Analysis 1) I personally found the film on deaf culture extremely interesting because it made the deaf community easier to understand by portraying people who are deaf simply as people of a different culture‚ and showed the deaf as real human beings who have opinions and deserve rights which is important because we live in such a hearing dominated society in which our world is filled with so many misconceptions about the deaf.
