I saw this documentary right after it was released and to see the follow up is like reading the sequel to a favorite novel that fills in the blanks of "but what happened after....".

Good viewing opportunity for students to get a follow up from the video that was shown the year before.

This may be an older movie, but it definitely showed the struggle with cochlear implants in the deaf community vs. the hearing community. It also showed the cultural vs. medical perspectives. It gives the viewer much to think about. Everyone who knows anyone with hearing loss needs to view this documentary!

This is a great sequel to Sound and Fury. Following up with the family to see where there were 6 six years later and seeing how auditory devices can help connect not only families but also the hearing and deaf worlds is amazing.

As a teacher of the deaf I found this movie very interesting. Heather was quite a little girl and as a grown up she has accomplished so much.

This video provided explanations to support choices that were made about auditory devices. It will provide closure to Sound and Fury 2000. Great quality, well balanced and informative about Families and Deaf Culture.

If you would like to understand the Deaf Community and the struggle with accepting cochlear implants, this is a great video to watch.

This is a very humanistic prospective and a great update to the "sound and fury"

It was a bit disappointing that this film ended up being an advertisement for cochlear implants. It seems like a cochlear implant company helped pay for it, it is listed in the credits. It is one perspective on the issue and still useful to watch.

Excellent resource for Common Core explanatory writing or compare/contrast writing.

The first "Sound and Fury" made a strong case for deaf parents refusing to implant their deaf children out of fear that they will be disconnected from deaf family. This segment shows the development of family's consideration for technology, the parents' eventual willingness to allow implantation and a very happy ending. There is much omitted, but for the time allowed, it does an excellent job of summarizing this family's experience.

Excellent documentary that continues the story of the Artinian family and their decisions to get cochlear implants. A must-see! Does an excellent job of also recapping Sound and Fury, so even if you have not seen the first one, you can still tag on to the story very easily.

The characters are great, and it really gives you a hopeful outlook on the progress a child can make with a cochlear implant. It also informs you on the thought process of the family members, which we need to understand if you work in the clinical setting as an SLP, audiologist, OT, and/or educator of people with hearing loss and cochlear implants.
