"I know you from TV," says Khaled, a deaf Palestinian, to Lee Dan, an Israeli sign language interpreter when he meets her at an army checkpoint. Hearing people, too, know Dan from the small "bubble" on the TV screen where she resides, translating programs into sign language. Outside the bubble, Lee also interprets for deaf people in various situations: at school, in court, in therapy, even in the delivery room. The film goes into the bubble, and tells the story of people like Lee, who live between silence and sound.
