They promise deaf people that they will be able to follow a group meeting, access a conference or receive phone calls through a written transcript sent directly to their smartphone.

Laurent Valo investigates, meeting inventors, entrepreneurs, researchers and activists.
AVAILABLE FOR SCREENING: original French (commentary, sub-titles, signing)
