Synopsys:

Kassandra Wedel, dancer, actress and all around artist, roams the city picking up sounds and movements from her surroundings to compose her very own music and dance. We explore what sound and music mean to her and witness the process of translating dance into music. She challenges our current perception and understanding of sound and music. Her only advantage? Her deafness.
