A Silent Attempt

A Silent Attempt

When danger enters a girl's house, the swinging of her objects in her room saves her even when she cannot hear them.

2023 · 5 min

When one night at Avery (22)'s house, a man decides to enter the house with the desire to kill but what he did not expect is that when he entered the room where the young deaf girl was, it is empty. Thanks to the vibration of the wall and the floor that she felt in her body and to the water shaking in her cup of water, she is able to detect the killer and escape through the back doors in time.
