FEELING THROUGH | Omeleto

★ Academy Award nomination

A homeless teenager searching for somewhere to sleep stops to help a deaf-blind man catch his bus home, and the small favor turns into a night of unexpected trust between two strangers who need each other more than either admits. Deaf-blind actor Robert Tarango grounds the quiet exchange of patience and generosity, right up to its gentle, aching goodbye.

Why it's free: Free on Omeleto's own channel; the distributor licensed it from writer-director Doug Roland.
