A film about speaking, stuttering, singing, silence and listening — about communication. How do you deal with speaking differently? How do we react to people who behave differently than the norm dictates? Science describes stuttering as a neuromuscular disorder in which malfunctions of muscles prevent words from coming out fluently. But the unconscious also plays a role: When you sing, you don't stutter.
