ABOUT
Ron and Karen welcome in their home a community of people hearing «voices» that comment on their daily thoughts and actions. They discuss the impact of these voices on their lives and social identities, but they also confront their voices and negotiate with them to become more cohabitants than intruders. This introduces an in-depth and very original discussion about difference, stigma, independency and show how individual singularities can form a political body. It is an account of an intimate hubbub, one which is inaudible to us, but which echoes all our hidden sufferings.
