Hear Me (2009) - 109 min

Country: Taiwan
Director: Fen-fen Cheng
Cast: Eddie Peng, Ivy Chen, Yanxi Chen, Bei-an Lo & Mei-Shiu Lin.
Tian Huo works as a delivery boy in his parents' restaurant. While delivering meal boxes he meets a deaf girl named Yang Yang. It tells the cute love story of Tian and Yang. How they manage to overcome their weakness.
It shows the value of relationships and also conveys a good message in the final act. 90% of the film use sign language as the medium to talk, which means the silent talking will definitely take you into their small world. It favors the performances of Ivy Chen and Eddie Peng more, because they need to put so much effort in the body language as well as the signs to express their feelings. Their expressive eyes and mannerism tell the rest. Overall, it gave me an entirely different experience as a viewer and full credit to the entire crew for their hard work.
Verdict: Good
