Hilma

2015 · 15 min

A quiet, sensory short that immerses you in a deaf girl's tactile world, tender and a little wistful.

Directed by
Ami-Ro Sköld
Starring
Lova Nyman, Kristoffer Kold Erlandson, Niclas Fransson
Overview
While Hilma is unable to hear the sounds of the world around her, she can feel their vibrations with the help of her father's old tape recorder. Recording sounds in her everyday life, she attempts to use the playback to communicate with a boy in her neighbourhood. When he is disinterested, she realizes that she shouldn't have been so quick to jump to conclusions.
