Aroview: An intimate, thought-provoking documentary that uses one extended family to explore the controversy surrounding a revolutionary procedure that can enhance hearing in the deaf.

With the success of the implant seen as a threat to sign language and the culture of its users, central to this debate are the deaf parents of a five-year-old girl who fear they will lose their daughter to the hearing world.
