500 wordsa day.One more.
In a world where people are allowed only 500 words a day, everyone wears a display on the neck that counts them. Victor, an authorisation officer in a silent city, silences people without saying a word.
One night he sees a mother spend her last words praying for her child. Victor listens to the unfiltered recordings and chooses the breach: a forbidden speech of 501 words.
512 words are spoken in the entire film. The rest is image and sound.
