Echo Each Other

Chen Pin Ru • 2017

The short film depicts a pair of homosexual lovers who communicate using sign language. Although they are not able to speak, their love for eachother is just as passionate as any other couples. The film abandons the coherence of time and uses a fragmented structure to construct the plot. The story builds on the two main characters' daily lifes, where they argue about the little things, have fights and silent cries, as well as stories of when they lose their belongings. The reason of only utilizing sign and body language to communicate is to give an experience of the power of silence communication to the audience.
