Summary:"Rolf [Lanicca] was the first child in Switzerland to receive a cochlear implant. After years of pressure by institutionalized medicine and his parents to become a hearing person, Rolf broke away and joined the deaf culture. Now he expresses his identity through sign language; with friends, and on the stage; where he provokes as a slam poet. The Forbidden Language is an emotional story about the obstacles facing deaf people in a hearing world, and of modern medicine's attempt at the suppression of sign language." -- Container
