This short is from the Moviemark DVD Indie Shorts Project Vol. 1 (2006). It's the first on the DVD and is very, very unusual and artsy.
Describing the plot is very, very difficult--especially since this is a film where the plot doesn't seem to be that important--what's important are the artistic qualities of film. It begins with a woman who appears to be homeless or a punk who in many ways looks like a young female version of Klaus Kinski with bright orange hair! Who exactly she is and why she behaves in such an odd fashion really isn't explained. However, she meets a deaf lady who uses real sign language, not gibberish and I found her easy to interpret what she was saying. I was happy the film makers got this right. Then the deaf lady introduces her to a weird violinist who plays haunting music.
What happens next, I won't mention--partly because it was confusing and partly because the film had already lost me a long time ago. I guess I could watch and re-watch the film to look for all the symbolism and meaning, but it never grabbed my attention at all despite decent production values.
