3. It is about a couple of musicians who live in a
mobile home Ruben and Lou.
4. Ruben is the drummer and little by little he begins to lose his
hearing. To which he he does not accept. He goes to a pharmacy and
they refer him to the doctor, and the doctor tells him that he hears
only 30% that he should stop being in contact with loud noises,
which he did not accept since he loved music and was a drummer.
5. There was also the other option of an implant being placed in the ear so
that he might be able to hear again, but it was still expensive. But it was
what she wanted to return to her normal life. they had to leave the Tour
in which they had to continue, since Lou realizes the problem that Ruben
is having. and they gave him the information of a Shelter for Deaf Addicts
where they could help him.
6. He didn't want to go,but ended up agreeing to see what they said there.
But he had to be separated from Lou, for a while since he had to do it
alone. And they end up leaving the place since he only wanted the
implants. Joe, who was in charge, told him that he could stay here because
it was paid for with religious charities, that is, aid. And he didn't accept it
and he got up from this place and that was it.
7. Lou made the decision to leave and told him to promise that he
would go to this Refuge that she loved him. and that's how he
agreed.
8. Arriving at this place where there were more people and with
various addictions as well. They spoke in sign language, he didn't
understand anything at first. It was very difficult for him to accept
being there.
9. Later he meets Diane who teaches children this sign language.
Over time he began to learn this sign language and also
participated with the children and that made him happy. And he
began to be an important part for everyone in this center.
10.

12.
13. But he made the decision to sell his RV so he
could pay for the deal AND get back to Lou.
And after buying the trailer back to get back to
his normal life, he also knew that Lou was
doing well.
14. Joe asked him if he'd like to stay working with them, maybe
teaching the kids or whatever he wanted him to think about.
That he was an important part of everyone. One day he left the
center and went to operate, the doctor said that he should return
in 4 weeks to activate the device and he could hear.
15. He came back and talked to Joe, he told him what he had done
and told him that's what you wanted and Ruben asked him to stay
these 4 weeks waiting to return to the clinic to activate the
device. But Joe told him that he couldn't accept that, because
here we believe that deafness is not a disability and he very
painfully asked her to leave. And I wish him that I hope he finds
happiness.
16. When they activate the implant, he realized that it didn't
sound like he thought. Rubén travels to her girlfriend Lou's
dad's house where he wants to meet her again. They were
going to have a party, and she sings a song with her dad
that she was having her birthday and Ruben realizes that he
no longer listened to music like before.
17. They talk about going on tour together again,
but I notice that Lou became very anxious and
tells her to rest assured that everything is fine
and that he saved her life and she tells him the
same and they hug.
18. The next day Ruben decides to leave, when he is in a park
listening to the wind, the noise of the trees, the children's
skateboards, he hears everything distorted and makes the
decision to remove his headphones and remains completely
silent. And he was finally more comfortable.
