Eleven Arts describes the story as this:
Based on the best-selling manga series by Yoshitoki Ōima, A Silent Voice is the poignant and moving story of Shōya Ishida, a school bully, and Shōko Nishimiya, a young girl with a hearing disability. Their story begins in sixth grade when Shōko transfers to Shōya’s elementary school and quickly finds herself bullied and isolated. Years later, the tables turn, and Shōya finds himself isolated and alone. A Silent Voice depicts the struggles and challenges of adolescence alongside coming-of-age outside the norm.
The movie was directed by Naoko Yamada (Liz and the Blue Bird and K-On!).
