Contents/Summary
- Summary
- Barcelona. Sebas, the director, receives a commission to create a video that illustrates the work of the Ojos del Mundo foundation, which helps the blind. The film will document how doctors restore eyesight to patients in the Bolivian Plateau. This is the story of a friendship between a young filmmaker, Sebas and a blind cinematographer, Gabor. Gabor is a Hungarian cinematographer residing in Spain who owns a camera rental-company which he started after he went blind on a shoot in the Amazon eight years ago. Sebas contacts him and suggests that they work together on the project. Filmed on the Bolivian Plateau, the documentary portrays how the two men overcome the challenges of a complicated shoot and how Gabor confronts the matter of his own blindness. Their relationship develops with emotion, sense of humor, and inevitable conflicts between a director and his closest ally.
