Sound and Fury, Hobart Shakespearians

I loved the list of documentary recommendations from the last few posts! We watched Sound and Fury, a documentary about cochlear implants and we really liked it. Very well done. I thought the producers did a great job portraying how complex this issue is and how emotional, especially to deaf people who value and treasure deaf culture. 9 out of 10. Universal appeal.

We also liked Hobart Shakespearians, about a teacher in LA who inspires his 5th grade classes on to greatness. While not as engrossing as Sound and Fury, still good, and a powerful example of the power of one teacher/one mentor/one educator.
