This film depicts an encounter between blind and sighted people in an exhibition designed to explore the differences and similarities between them. Sighted individuals are placed in a situation similar to that of blind people in a completely dark environment; they are guided by blind people. Their encounter continues outside the exhibition, in locations with normal lighting. The film alternates between light and darkness. Beyond these interactions, the film seeks to raise the question of prejudice versus the acceptance of difference—the difference between blind and sighted people, and more generally, the differences between perspectives and perceptions.
