Through examining Fini Straubinger, an old woman who has been deaf and blind since adolescence, and her work on behalf of other deaf and blind people, this film shows how the deaf and blind struggle to understand and accept a world from which they are almost wholly isolated.

angol Werner Herzog takes us on a trip to the land of silence and darkness, that is, among people who have lost almost all contact with the outside world due to their severe visual and hearing impairments. Something most of us can’t start to imagine or comprehend. There’s a very limited amount of commenting by the director, this time. Herzog only talks when a situation absolutely requires an explanation. Otherwise, he lets the experts speak – those about whom this sad story is. Obviously, you won’t be merrily jumping in the air after seeing this film, but you’ll have gained a damn huge respect for those people who can effectively learn to live in such dramatic isolation.
