Sibel: a film featuring Turkish Bird Language

Postby DaveAgain » Sat Oct 09, 2021 9:04 am

Arte.tv currently have a film called Sibel where the female lead is a mute who communicates in a whistling language, which I think may be Turkish Bird Language.
25-year-old Sibel lives with her father and sister in a secluded village in the mountains of Turkey’s Black Sea region. Sibel is a mute, but she communicates by using the ancestral whistled language of the area.
