Popcorn Culture - Review: CODA

A coming-of-age comedy drama, CODA focuses on Ruby (the eponymous child of deaf adults) - the only hearing member of a culturally Deaf family, and the push and pull between her desire to help her family with their business, and forge her own path. With a cast including deaf actors playing deaf characters (Marlee Matlin, Troy Kotsur and Daniel Durant) and a focus on inclusivity, CODA has been getting strong reviews and three Academy Awards nominations. We discuss our impressions of the film and whether we enjoyed it.

Produced by: Lee Chwi Lynn, Sharmilla Ganesan, Arvindh Yuvaraj
