The Leon Levin Psychoanalytic Film Festival-CODA

Ruby is the only hearing member of a deaf family from Gloucester, Massachusetts. At 17, she works mornings before school to help her parents and brother keep their fishing business afloat. But in joining her high school’s choir club, Ruby finds herself drawn to both her duet partner and her latent passion for singing. These duel pulls between being the family interpreter and striving for her own autonomy make for a drama filled with powerful moments as it (according to one review) ‘spins and burbles and flows with sincerity and precision.
