A sweet film has deeply attracted audiences,including the judges at the Academy Awards.The movie CODA is shining a light,winning Best Picture of 2021.Instead of clapping,movie stars cheered by waving their hands,a lovely and respectful sign to the much under-represented deaf community.
   CODA means Children of Deaf Adults and CODA is about Ruby,a hearing teenage girl growing up with deaf parents and a deaf brother.Though her ability to hear sets her apart from her family,the four people function as a unit.Ruby had been communicating in American Sign Language (ASL) before she could speak.She is her family's sign language interpreter(傳譯員) and helps out on the fishing boat.When the family's fishing business is threatened,Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her dream and her fear of leaving her parents.
   This is an English language version of the 2014 movie La Famille Belier.However,CODA takes this story to a new level.Unlike the French version,which used hearing actors,writer and director Sian Heder insisted on using deaf actors,a first for Hollywood.The result is a deep and clear description of life within a deaf family.Deaf people,who often feel lonely,finally feel accepted,and are glad to see this movie.
   Laurie Ann Barish,a child of a deaf mother,cried when she watched the movie."Finally,a special world is unmuted.I wish this had happened when I was younger.It would have been a wonderful gift for my mom.It was for the world to see that we're all the same," Barish said.
   Thanks to CODA,cinema lovers may now be able to better respect and know about the deaf. "It's a culture that has been ignored and blocked off from access,"Heder said."I hope that people are going to be exposed(接觸)to deaf culture and ASL through this film.They might never have seen a scene before where a deaf family is sitting around a dinner table."
