Tuesday Talks at the BCP Market, January 19th, 2016 10:30 a.m.
See the Award-winning Documentary: Blind Spot; Moments Unseen
Imagine if you had your kitchen chairs stacked chest high and you were sitting on them at the edge of Volcan Baru with your eyes closed. As you try to balance the wind begins to howl and you are in a desperate search for balance and where failure means certain injury or death. Try doing that for ten days.
That's what it must have felt like for first-time rider Ruth Bieber on horseback as she rode thru the raw and wild Argentinian region of Patagonia. Blind since age six, Ruth, a Canadian, was one of three people asked to participate in a documentary which has become the award winning film: Blind Spot; Moments Unseen. The extraordinary cinematography is the backdrop as the film explores unbounded courage in three lives touched by a terrible beauty experienced with every other sense but sight. It won top honors as Best International Documentary at the 2015 Equus Film Festival in New York.
Ruth will be on hand for the Boquete debut, Tuesday, January 19th. in the BCP theater at 10:30 a.m. Coming from downtown, the BCP is the building on the right just over the main bridge across the street from the fairgrounds.
