Laura grows up as a non-hearing-impaired daughter of deaf parents. In this melodrama, she moves back and forth between a speaking world and a silent one, and must ultimately defend her love for playing the clarinet against her father’s lack of understanding.

20:00 Code inconnu - F/D 2000. 116 min. Director: Michael Haneke.
Michael Haneke’s theme is communication and how it doesn’t come about (any more), or does so only through acts of violence. In fragmentary, brilliantly narrated episodes, he plumbs the depths of various codes in this puzzling game in search of their relevance to the present.
