Telling stories through sign language: A Quiet Love

From Saturday Morning, 10:06 am on 19 July 2025

Three deaf couples navigate love, parenting, and identity in the deeply personal documentary A Quiet Love.  

The film follows a decades-long forbidden romance across a religious divide, an LGBTQI+ couple navigating parenthood with deaf and hearing children, and a deaf boxer and his hearing partner facing a life-altering choice. 

Director Garry Keane speaks with Mihingarangi about making Ireland's first feature documentary in Irish Sign Language. 

A Quiet Love shows in Wellington and Christchurch tonight and is streaming as part of the Doc Edge festival.
