Examines the lives of deaf and blind children in a special wing of an institution in Amhearst, Nova Scotia. Shot during a month in residence at the school and edited over two years, the tape carefully observes and records the relationship these children have with each other, with their wards and with the artist himself. A thoughtful evocative study, with no voice-over commentary or "explanation."
Quartet for deafblind was directed by Norman Cohn.
Quartet for deafblind runs for 1h 20min, and was released in 1986.
