Rattapallax Film Presents SOUND BARRIER at the Tribeca
Film Festival, NYC

"It is one of the most stunning films I have seen this
year."
-- Peter Scarlet, Director of the Tribeca Film
Festival on the Leonard Lopate Show on WNYC, April 19,
2005

"Sound Barrier: Iranian master Amir Naderi's latest
dispatch from the streets of his adopted New York
represents a return to the themes of his seminal The
Runner. Fending for himself in an indifferent city, a
deaf boy searches for the remaining traces of his dead
mother, a radio talk show host who left behind a
collection of audio cassettes in a Greenpoint
warehouse. As is customary in Naderi's oeuvre, sound
design is crucial, and the movie gradually builds to
an aural tour de force set on a congested bridge.
Exhilarating and exhausting — with a finale that is
quite literally an epiphany." — Village Voice
