Synopsis

Because he’s hard of hearing, Kohei Sugihara (Hideya Tawada) tends to distance himself from others unconsciously. As a college student, this usually means he doesn’t spend much time with his peers. At least not until the day his classmate Taichi Sagawa (Onodera Akira) quite literally stumbles into his life.  After accidentally running into Kohei, Taichi notices his classmate has a rather delicious-looking bento. Intrigued by the lunch box, Taichi is happy when Kohei offers to share but is left feeling a bit confused when Kohei leaves without saying a word. Not realizing Kohei is hard of hearing, Taichi approaches his classmate with a unique proposition, one he learns the truth.  Offering to write up the notes from class in exchange for part of Kohei’s bento every day, Taichi gingerly steps foot into Kohei’s world. With the exchange of notes and lunches, will these two very different individuals find a friendship unlike any they could ever have imagined? Adapted from the manga series "I Can Hear the Murmur” by Yuki Fumino, “Silhouette of Your Voice” is a 2017 Japanese youth drama film directed by Kamijo Daisuke.
