The Five-Minute SIGNopsis was a competition held as part of TISLR 13, the conference on sign language linguistics organized in Hamburg in 2019. Young sign language linguists were invited to present their research in sign language.
The result was several great videos that present research findings in a concise, informative, and appealing way, all with English subtitles. Two of them were by IDGS students: Illmer and Löffler.
