A name sign, whether affectionate, anecdotal or even sometimes vulgar, points at one of a person’s most defining habits, their most original demeanour or most salient feature.
Philippe Guyon wants to find out what the criteria are for assigning a name sign? Can we change if we do not like it? Does the signed name take precedence over the civil name of a deaf person?
An entertaining journey into deaf culture to discover one of its most fascinating singularities.

AVAILABLE FOR SCREENING: original French (commentary, sub-titles, signing)
