The Sounding

Liv (Catherine Eaton) has lived a life in silence on a remote island off the coast of Maine, where she's been raised by her grandfather Lionel (Harris Yulin). When Lionel discovers he will soon die, his concern for Liv's future leads him to call upon a neurologist, his former protege, Michael (Teddy Sears), in hopes he will protect Liv. But, when Michael overhears Liv break her silence - weaving her own language from Shakespeare's words - he commits her to a psychiatric hospital. It is within those halls where Liv cannot be contained, where her rebellious nature causes her to become increasingly violent, and where a final emotional showdown will take place. Will it be on her terms, or will she lose herself? (Cinequest Festival)
