00:03Sorda by Eva Libertad is the winner of the European Parliament's Lux Audience Award,
00:09selected by European citizens and members of the European Parliament.
00:13Sorda is about a deaf mother, Angela, whose relationship with her partner Hector
00:18is turned upside down by the birth of the baby.
00:21Hector and her have built that bubble of love that seems irresponsible,
00:25where they communicate very well.
00:27But of course, that bubble works when they are alone,
00:31but when the creature arrives, that bubble is pinched,
00:34and the relationship has to be opened,
00:37and then Angela sees how the focus of Hector changes,
00:42of being alone for her, and suddenly she is also for the child,
00:47and her daughter is a student.
00:48The movie has already led to some changes in Spain.
00:54In the region where it was played, where I was born and grew up in Murcia,
00:59the General Assembly has implemented a protocol
01:05for young mothers during the birth in hospitals.
01:11The film's story also reflects Libertad's personal life as her sister is deaf.
01:16The film was chosen over the four competitors.
01:19It was just an accident, Christy, sentimental value, and love me tender.
