Deaf Romance Short Film 'Noise'

A Deaf woman forms a bond with a stranger, forcing them to communicate without language.

Omeleto release a romance short film “Noise” presenting Sophie stands by herself staring at the ocean. Lost in her own world and thoughts - as well as being Deaf - she is oblivious at first to the stranger who begins to share her spot on the pier, trying to photograph the local scene.

Eventually they strike up a conversation via hand gestures and facial expressions, and Sophie and Bemo spend the afternoon together, forming an unlikely bond that flourishes despite their lack of shared language. But that growing bond and attraction is challenged in its own way, and what seems like a straightforward romance becomes a meditation on attraction, love and the vivid, fleeting nature of it all.

Writer-director Michael Aloyan's short romance traces the beginning of an attraction, beginning with the requisite "meet cute" and proceeding until what's traditionally regarded as the next step. Charming, simply but beautifully shot and well-performed, watching two different individuals find common ground and then attraction is lovely, especially when the storytelling highlights how their lack of shared language seemingly makes space for a more intimate, vulnerable connection.

There isn't much dialogue in the film, but strong sound design offers a glimpse of what's it like to be in Sophie's head, experiencing music as rhythmic thumps and exploring a subjectivity that is rich in sensation, even if she can't hear sound. Sharing some of that with Bemo forms one of the most evocative and heart-warming moments in the film, and it's easy to see why they become so taken with one another.

Actress T.J. Carpio plays Sophie's hearing impairment lightly, but traces her growing openness to Bemo with great responsiveness and emotional honesty. Actor Shvan Aladdin plays off her well as Bemo, essaying a role notable for its warmth and kindness, and the two's connection flourishes, even if they don't seem to have much shared ground yet.

As Sophie and Bemo develop other ways to share their selves and lives outside of spoken conversation, the film seems to function as a romantic montage leading to a high point of consummation, gracefully threading through their growing intimacy in a series of beautifully etched vignettes. But in a subtle but clever set of twists, the storytelling upends those narrative expectations, making what seems like a straightforward romance into something unexpectedly meditative and even melancholy.

Without giving too much away, "Noise" seems to question just what the origin of attraction is, what role and importance common ground -- whether it's through shared language or other values -- plays in love and what do we gain or give up when rushing into romance. This narrative turn is gently accomplished without melodrama, but it's enough that when the would-be couple come back together, the emotional tenor of the story is markedly different from the beginning. It's not unlike real life, perhaps, when the beautiful "castle in the sky" created by two people's mutual romantic fantasy and momentum reveals itself as the fragile edifice it is -- and the couple must decide what's really holding it up, and whether that's enough to sustain it.

Deaf Couple Dead In Apparent Murder-Suicide

Deaf News: Man, woman die in murder-suicide in Idaho shooting.

CALDWELL, Idaho -- Four children are without their parents following Monday’s domestic violence shooting, which was the second deadly case of domestic violence in Canyon County in the past nine weeks.

An investigation indicated that Ian S. Stone, 37, shot Jaclyn D. Zabel, 29, and then turned the gun on himself, according to a press release from Canyon County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Marv Dashiell.

“Investigators have determined the incident was a domestic violence situation which elevated to the most severe type of situation and resulted in the loss of life,” according to the sheriff’s release.

Zabel and Stone, both Deaf, and their four children practiced jiu-jitsu in northern Idaho at Bonners Ferry BJJ, according to Sam Brown, their coach and friend.

“The whole family was well liked up here and there is a lot of broken hearts,” he said. “We are all shocked and deeply saddened by what transpired on Monday.”

Zabel’s death was ruled a homicide, according to the Ada County Coroner’s Office. She was pronounced dead at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center around 7 a.m. Tuesday.

Zabel died later Tuesday night in a Boise hospital, according to the release.

The Ada County Coroner’s Office release stated both died of a gunshot wound to the head.

Stone’s last Facebook post, published 8:34 a.m. Monday, expressed turmoil over the relationship.

“Inside of me is broke,” read part of his post, just an hour before the shooting.

The relationship between Stone and Zabel has not been made clear by police.

Two months ago, Stone bid Zabel a happy anniversary on Facebook. “To my beautiful wife, Jacy Zabel,” his post read on March 28. “Want to say happy 9 years anniversary together. I love you so much with all my heart. We been through good time and bad time.”

First responders arrived at 19351 Wagner Road in Caldwell around 9:30 a.m. Monday. Children were removed from the house after the shooting, according to Dashiell. How many children were present and the names of their parents have not been released.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families involved in this terrible situation,” the sheriff’s office release states.

Stone was previously convicted of misdemeanor domestic battery in 2007 after pleading guilty to the charge in Bonner County, according to the Idaho online courts repository. He participated in a diversion program for the charge, according to the repository. In 2015, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disturbing the peace and destruction of a telecommunication line in Bonner County.

A Meal Train has been set up to support the Zabel family. People can donate money or provide meals.

Brown said he plans to work with the jiu-jistu members to see how else they can help the children and family members impacted by their deaths.

Two months and one day earlier from Monday’s shooting, Kymberlee Larsen, a 22-year-old mother, was killed in a domestic violence stabbing in Nampa. According to the sheriff’s office, Evan C. Bashir, 29, broke into a Nampa house and stabbed Larsen and Larsen’s sister and mother. Her sister, Chelsea Larsen, 27, and her mother, Julianna Flowers, 57, recovered from their injuries.

Bashir was shot and killed by one of two responding Nampa Police officers.

Bashir and Larsen were in a romantic relationship that had been deteriorating for some time, Canyon County Sheriff Keiran Donahue said in a press conference in March.

This month, U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, wrote an opinion piece urging the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act.

The Act, which was signed into law in 1994, has been reauthorized three times since. It has helped Idaho nonprofits and agencies provide life-saving services to domestic violence, dating violence and sexual assault victims.

The Idaho Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence reported that in 2016 there were 6,067 incidents of intimate partner violence and 2,063 incidents of sexual assault reported to law enforcement agencies in Idaho, according to Crapo.
