Synopsis
In this documentary, Julien Bourges traces part of the life of Alfredo Corrado, an American deaf artist. Today recognized by the French Deaf community as an important figure, he arrived in Paris in the late 1970s, at a time when French Sign Language was banned and despised.
This unique documentary on Alfredo Corrado also tells the story of the creation of the International Visual Theatre at the Château de Vincennes, the first theater dedicated to Deaf culture in France. This venture profoundly transformed the history of Deaf people in France.
