As a new freshman at the university, Noah falls madly in love with a Deaf girl named Sarah. As Noah learns American Sign Language in order to communicate with Sarah, the two create a relationship built on seeing the world in a new way. But when their relationship is threatened by the bigoted attitude of Noah’s parents, Noah faces a critical decision: Will he conform to both his parents’ and societal expectations, or stand up for the love and acceptance which have always been second-nature to him? “I Choose You” seeks to inspire empathy in its viewers by demonstrating that being Deaf is not a limitation or a defect, but rather a unique and beautiful facet of human diversity.

Viewer discretion is advised. Depictions of suicide and extreme emotional distress.
