Awi film is the first organization in the Czech Republic which produces movies made by deaf people. The idea of its organization is draw the lifestyle, culture and language of deaf in the Czech Republic through the movies. The factors which established our company are to entertain deaf community, to use first language which is Czech sign language. The quality of our movies is still immature, amateur but it encourages us to professional level.


Why it is called “Awi film”?
 

Awi comes from specific sign language where deaf are saying:” Hey, look at that movie!”
This specific sign is used with oral components which can be understood as: “av”, “af”, “aw”, “avi”. These signs established our name of the company“Awi film”.
