Hear Me Out

Antoine, a history teacher in his early 50s, learns that he is gradually losing his hearing. Unable to own up to his handicap, he resigns himself to living in his bubble, even though his friends find his behavior increasingly odd. An encounter with Claire, a widow, and mother of a young girl who has stopped speaking, will lead him to open up to the world. A romantic comedy that follows the rubrics of the genre but manages to surprise and enthrall thanks to the frank writing and virtuous performance.
