Why watch this film?

How can a man who sees be blind to what is right in front of him? Or how can a blind man see the world better than those who can see? From this dilemma, director Ido Fluk (in his first feature film) develops a whole drama about family, friendship and envy. Despite being well filmed and with great performances, Fluk’s hand ends up weighing on the feature film, which causes his main message to get lost. Still, it is an interesting start for the director.

Plot summary

A blind man who inexplicably regains his vision and becomes possessed by a drive to make a better life for himself. However, his new improvements—a nicer home, a higher paying job, tailored suits, luxury car—leave little room for the people who were part of his old, simpler life: his plain wife and close friend Bob. As his relationships buckle under the strain of his snowballing ambition, it becomes uncertain if James can ever return from darkness.
