For 4 years,
Fini Straubinger...
:27:06
visits the deaf-blind
of Bavaria...
:27:08
on behalf of
the League for the Blind.
:27:26
Accompanied by
Mrs Mittermeier...
:27:28
who translates everything
into her hand...
:27:35
she keeps in touch
with the deaf-blind...
:27:38
and takes care of
their problems.
:27:42
My coupon, thank you.
:27:50
If I were a painter...
:27:55
I'd represent
our condition like this:
:28:03
Blindness like a black river...
:28:08
flowing slowly like a melody...
:28:12
towards great falls.
:28:16
On its banks,
trees and flowers...
:28:22
and birds singing sweetly.
:28:27
The other river,
coming from the other side...
:28:32
is as clear as
the purest crystal.
:28:36
This one also flows slowly...
:28:40
but without any sound.
:28:45
Deep down there is a lake...
:28:48
very dark and deep...
:28:54
where the two rivers meet.
:28:59
Where they join,
there are rocks...
