Will a man who speaks nine languages ever learn to communicate with his wife? Will the last two speakers of a soon-to-be dead language break their vow of silence? The lives of five people are imaginatively woven together as they discover that no matter how many words they can speak, it’s the heart’s language that matters most - a fable about the limits of language in matters of the heart. “Passionate... wise and wonderful.” - Talkin' Broadway
