Sorda - Expat Cinema Rotterdam
Miss seeing international films because you can’t yet keep up with the Dutch subtitles? Want to meet fellow expats and new Dutch folks? Love cinema? Then this is the event for you! Join Expat Cinema Rotterdam for the best international art house cinema with English subtitles.
Sorda (Deaf) is a gripping and boundary-pushing Spanish drama that lets you experience just how different — and intense — the world can be without sound. How do you build a relationship and a family when you can’t rely on communication that others take for granted?
Ángela (Miriam Garlo) and Hector (Álvaro Cervantes) are in love, happy, and ready to welcome their first child. But after the birth, the balance shifts. Their love and parenthood are put to the test as Ángela, who is deaf, faces a society that constantly excludes her. While Hector navigates the world of the hearing, Ángela must fight for her voice, her place, and her own way of loving.
With Sorda, winner of the Panorama Audience Award at the Berlin Film Festival, director and screenwriter Eva Libertad showcases just how fragile — and powerful — intimacy can be. She cast her sister, deaf actress Miriam Garlo, in the lead role — a choice that makes the film raw, authentic, and unforgettable.
