Language is Life

Growing up in silence, a 14-year-old deaf refugee has never known school, writing, or spoken language. In Switzerland, an interpreter discovers him and opens the door to a language school in Zurich. There, he encounters sign language for the very first time – unlocking communication, identity, and a sense of belonging. Based on a true story, Language is Life is a powerful testimony to how language can restore not only words, but an entire life.
