Our suggestions
When three of their children are diagnosed with an incurable disease that leads to severe visual impairment, the Pelletier family embarks on a journey to see the world’s beauty while they still can. As they experience breathtaking destinations and once-in-a-lifetime encounters, their love, resilience and unshakeable sense of wonder ensure that an uncertain future does not define their present.
"Blink is a documentary with a bittersweet story: in a family, three out of four children are diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa, an incurable condition that will cause them to lose their sight. What do the parents decide to do? They embark on a series of incredible trips to nourish their children's visual memory before they can no longer see. It’s one of those films about learning to live and enjoy the present, without letting tragedy define the future, through the love of a family. Its use of music may be somewhat sentimental, but it is undoubtedly a touching documentary."
