| Synopsis: |
This highly acclaimed multi-layered BBC documentary takes the lid off the Deaf World. Shown on television (BBC) three times, it is now available on video. Its broad-ranging content covers Deaf culture, the nature of BSL and the implications of a late diagnosis on the development of the brain, choices parents make (oralism or bi-lingualism), an animated explanation of the workings of the ear and causes of deafness and the problems of the deafened which includes the inherent difficulties of lipreading. Working on many levels, it is highly recommended for parents, deaf awareness trainers, BSL students, teachers and deaf people themselves. VIDEO (organisation) 30mins 2001. "Best of Both Worlds" is an exciting easy to understand VHS video explaining all aspects of Deafness, including medical causes along with British Sign Language and Signed Supported English. Using 3 way split cameras it highlights the differences between BSL and the spoken word using amazing 3D animation. Using Deaf and hearing presenters, the video explores the communication barrier between two worlds, and shows why Deaf people have such pride in their versatile and comprehensive language.Also included in the half an hour VHS video are issues about Deaf parents and children, Deaf culture and problems people face if they become Deaf or hard of hearing in later life. Simon Mckeown and Kathy Robinson wrote, designed and produced this programme for the BBC in 1997 and it has since become one of the most sought after videos in this field. |
