Do the actresses in this film do their own signing?

Paul, I didn't even know they were deaf. ;)


From the link below, a quote notes that in 8 WOMEN:

The singing sequences are slightly surreal, and extraordinarily charming within the larger context of such a singular work. What is most engaging about them though, is that each of the actresses does her own singing - no dubbed-in professional voices.

Thanks, but who taught them sign language? Was it Ozon? (that's one of those instances where "spell check" isn't going to help you)

Personally I think the soundtrack is better than the film. The fact that it's the actress's actual voices makes it that much more impressive.
