See No Evil, Hear No Evil

In the bustling heart of New York City, the streets pulse with a chaotic blend of honking taxis, perpetual chatter, and the relentless rhythm of urban life. Against this vibrant backdrop, two unlikely entrepreneurs find themselves sharing a cramped newsstand—Wally, a blind man whose world is defined by touch and intuition, and Dave, a deaf man who navigates the city through sight and silence. Their partnership is built on a fragile but charming choreography of gestures, written notes, and a deepening trust that turns a simple business venture into a lively dance of misunderstanding and mutual reliance.

The film’s tone is a buoyant mix of slapstick comedy and heartfelt camaraderie, where everyday obstacles become sources of laughter and ingenuity. As the duo confronts the challenges of running a stall—misread signs, accidentally misplaced newspapers, and the occasional bewildered customer—their contrasting senses highlight both the absurdity and the ingenuity of adapting to a world that rarely accommodates their disabilities. The city itself feels like a character, its crowded sidewalks and noisy subways providing both obstacles and opportunities for the pair to showcase their heightened awareness.

All is not tranquil, however; the ordinary rhythm of their lives is suddenly disrupted by the ominous ripple of a nearby murder. The incident casts a shadow over the neighborhood, pulling Wally and Dave into an investigation that tests the limits of their unique abilities. Forced to rely on hyper‑sensory perception and their growing friendship, they must navigate a maze of clues, misunderstandings, and a hapless detective who can’t quite keep up. The story promises a delightful blend of humor, suspense, and the unbreakable bond forged between two men who learn to see and hear the world in each other’s stead.
