Listen to Your Heart is a 2010 romantic drama film written by Kent Moran, produced by Kent Moran and Luke Moran, and directed by Matt Thompson.[1]
Struggling and aspiring songwriter, Danny Foster, (Kent Moran) works at a diner. At the diner, Danny meets Ariana "Sam" Scott, a privileged young woman and gives her his number, despite Victoria (Cybill Shepherd), her mother's disapproval. Unbeknownst to Danny, the young woman is deaf. After a few weeks, she reveals to Danny her condition, to which he accepts. Danny takes her on a date to the movies. After, they head to the diner where he expresses his love for music. Danny begins to court Sam.
During a lecture, Sam gets ridiculed for answering a question. She runs off and take refuge in the restroom. Nicole, a students from the same class, consults her and they become friends. After an intimate moment, Danny and Sam bond over their deceased relatives (Danny mother and father, and Sam's father, respectively). Victoria finds out that Danny and Sam are dating. Next, she plots to break up their relationship. At a family party, Danny is kicked out for attempting to speak to her. Victoria introduces Sam to Nigel, a rich young man whom she approves of. When he attempts to sexually assaults Sam, her mother berates her. Sam runs away to find Danny, but she gets caught. Instead of leaving, Sam slaps her mother, which Roger witnesses.
Roger tells Danny that Sam loves him, although she is being manipulated. Unfortunately, Sam finds out that Victoria had blocked Danny from communicating with her. Sam speaks for the first time while scolding her mother and the caretaker quits. Thus, Victoria controlled Sam because she did not want to lose her like her father. Danny performs at the diner and Nicole is in attendance because Sam could not make it. Eventually, Danny starts to get sick due to cancer. Sam is by his side along the way. During a hospital visit, Danny and Sam have sex.
Sam undergoes ear surgery, so she can finally hear. At Danny's funeral, Roger congratulates Sam on her acceptance to a music school. When Sam arrives, she's surprised to hear everything in New York City.
