CGiii Comment

In this 10-minute semi-silent experimental short, a young, gay, deaf-blind man faces a number of challenges when purchasing tickets for a musical for himself and his loved ones. This film has been designed in such a way to be as accessible as possible, with the use of English subtitles and descriptive audio, and is intended to be reflective of the experiences faced by those who are marginalized in an inaccessible society.
