About

Silent Music is a feature length documentary directed and produced by Melissa A. Gomez. The film follows Melissa, a hearing daughter of deaf parents, as she investigates the silence and communication breakdown that are at the heart of her family’s dysfunction. Through difficult confrontations and unexpected revelations, the film celebrates the love of family while also forcing both Melissa and the audience to answer a difficult question for themselves: ‘Are some secrets best left hidden?’
