MY REVIEW: Jesus: a Deaf Missions film is a marvelous film for anyone to see. I am not deaf and I only know fewer than 10 words in ASL, plus the alphabet. But, that did not prevent me from being engrossed in the story. If anything, I stayed more engaged with the film since I had to rely on viewing and closed captions. I am a person who loves closed captioning, so it wasn't a distraction for me. But the actors were so expressive that the Biblical stories did spring to life without spoken words.

For the hearing, there are background sounds like birds chirping and water running. They are actually more noticeable since there are no words. I think it was easy to follow along with, but I am familiar with the Bible. I truly can not guess the ease (or difficulty) for anyone who has not read the Bible, but I recommend you watch the film. There are many who are willing to answer any questions you have.

Warning: Some scenes are very graphic, especially during the scenes before and including the crucifixion. It may be too much for children or anyone traumatized by the sight of blood or violence. However, for all others, I definitely recommend this remarkable film.
