IF YOU CAN LOOK SEE, IF YOU CAN SEE NOTICE
It is a voyage through the effort made by the theatrical group "O Bando", of adapting for theatre the book by Nobel Prize winner José Saramago, "Ensaio Sobre a Cegueira" (an essay on blindness). A fantastic allegory in which one sees blindfolded actors becoming emotional when they experience the sensations of being blind. By following this discovery of the world of the blind, through the actors, we also discover the importance of our other senses besides vision . By making us relive "Ensaio Sobre a Cegueira", this film is an excellent artistic object, but also an important working document for those who are interested in the performing arts, or just in literature.
