About the Show
Louisiana’s Acadiana region is home to one of the nation’s largest known communities of people with Usher Syndrome, particularly the severe Acadian form (USH1C) carried by early Acadian settlers. THE QUIET CAJUNS, a new shortdocumentary from producers Conni Castille and Phyllis Baudoin Griffard, introduces viewers to two people living with the condition and the researchers working toward a cure.
