Pretty much title. If you take out the sound design and Riz Ahmed there is nothing special about this at all. However, those two things do elevate it above an average film and the ending is also super effective. The theatre reacted very strongly to that section, myself included. When a heavy metal drummer has a rapid hearing loss, his musical partner / girlfriend could have attempted to ask her rich father for money to cover his cochlear implant surgery. Instead, she abandons him to a group that teaches people how to adapt to deaf culture - a group that acts like a cult (no outside contact, no use of artificial devices like implants.
From then it felt like an advertisement. Besides the happy deaf people (adults at the group home and young people at a special class in school) when he raises the money himself to get the implants, they don't work well, and he only finds peace (and God? when he turns them off.
I saw this at the Toronto International Film Festival, where the director acknowledged inspiration from his grandmother, who went deaf without modern supports, and assistance from the deaf community. The film is captioned for the hearing impaired, but not all sign language is subtitled, which shows who the film is directed towards.
