Here’s a movie to watch with tea and an open heart. Notes on Blindness takes us through John Hull’s experience going blind. It taps into the deep sorrows that come with losing sight, while also revealing how present Hull becomes in his other senses. The movie is based off Hull’s memoir that Oliver Sacks described as, “the most extraordinary, precise, deep and beautiful account of blindness I have ever read.”
We think this is an important film because it reminds us that even with its dark moments, existing in human flesh will forever be meaningful.
