Description
Host Paul Booth reviews THE SOUNDING, which premiered at 2017 Cinequest in San Jose. Co-written, starring and Directed by Catherine Eaton. Also, a past guest of Talking Pictures,
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, Training Day). 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, The Flash), 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? Director, co-writer, and star Eaton superbly crafts an unforgettable tale about humanity, about embracing those who are marginalized, and about how we should always strive to be something more…something extraordinary. – Michael Rabehl
