Silent Dance tells the story of Turkey’s first ballerina with hearing impairment: Eda Tavaci’s extraordinary relationship with sounds, music, people and her body. It draws a success story from the life full of difficulties and vulnerabilities of a young woman who holds on to life by dancing against noise, deeply rooted habits and deafness. Eda’s dream is to find her own voice in the darkness of violence against women within the metropolitan chaos and to inspire others. But in a world that makes people to lose sensibilities every day, how can a girl who tries to bond with the rest of the World as she also expects support from her mother realize this naive desire? The film sheds light on the milestones in Eda Tavaci’s life, starting from her childhood until she graduated from university; it draws the portrait of an artist who transforms the ballet stage into a huge world, captures a completely different sense of rhythm by imagining the music she cannot hear, and compensates for the absence of sounds with the energy hidden in her body.
