This beautiful film, made in 2001 in Kent, is about a deaf woman, roaming an overcast beach. She finds an abandoned wheelchair, then when she walks past it, she can hear things. She continues to walk, amazed at the sounds she can hear and fins a pair of boots. She then sees a man lying on the ground. The boots are his; she helps him back into the 'magic mile' in which all disabilities are abolished.
This is a beautifully shot and very original film. I love the idea of this tranquil, deserted beach possessing miraculous qualities. Minimum dialogue and action allow for a clear thought process, and I didn't find it confusing at all, as some short films can be.
Louise Dumayne's joy at her ability to hear is lovely. A wonderful film.
