Film Description:

This non dialogue short centers around a young boy who is both blind and deaf and has a passion for music. Each night before bed his parents host, what they call, ‘the concert hour’ for him in the living room. So for a few moments their child believes he is conducting his own orchesta and he guides himself through the vibrations that surround him. As the show goes on, we will realize not everything we see is what it seems, not even what we hear or feel.
