      abstract = {Sound and Fury takes viewers inside the seldom seen world  of the deaf to witness a painful family struggle over a  controversial medical technology called the cochlear  implant. Some family members celebrate the implant as a  long overdue cure for deafness while others fear it will  destroy their language and way of life. Sound and Fury  explores this seemingly irreconcilable conflict as it  illuminates the ongoing struggle for identity among deaf  people today. The Artinian family is at the epicenter of  this conflict and their incredible story illustrates the  tension and raw emotion on both sides of this highly  charged fence. Two brothers, one deaf and one hearing,  anguish over the difficult choices they face about how to  raise their deaf children. They reach very different  conclusions about the cochlear implant, and their decisions  spark passionate responses from their hearing and deaf  relatives. Out of the Artinian's extraordinary candor  emerges a rare and intimate portrait of the deaf that  forces viewers to re-examine their definitions of personal  identity, disability, culture and community. In addition to  raising questions about deaf culture that few people in the  hearing world ever consider, Sound and Fury offers the  embattled deaf community an opportunity to gain greater  understanding, tolerance, and acceptance of personal  choice.},
