Inspired by a true story, the movie NADA follows a deaf ballerina named Nada who loves life and has a passion for dancing. Nada never lets her disability get in her way, but it does for the first time when she tries to express her feelings for her colleague Omar — a blind pianist.
Will both disabilities be a barrier to communication, or will they find a way to express their feelings for each other? Their final performance will reveal it all.
