In the Land of the Deaf (aka Le Pays des sourds) (1992) - ickleReview (DVD)

A magical, informative and entertaining documentary of the highest order, In the Land of the Deaf brings a whole new meaning to the concept of foreign language film by exploring sign language and the lives of deaf people in France.

Nugget: on a par with Être et avoir.
