Synopsis
Moonlight Sonata begins with filmmaker and mother Irene Taylor Brodsky audibly trying to get her infant son’s attention. He is already going deaf, but she does not yet know it. A visceral and intimate story, the film chronicles a deaf boy growing up, a deaf man growing old, and perhaps the world’s most famous deaf person, Ludwig van Beethoven, a composer who crafted a sonata that would resonate across time and cultures.
