This is the story of a friendship between a young filmmaker and a blind cinematographer, between Sebas and Gabor.
Sebas has been commissioned to make a documentary on the work of Ulls Del Mon, an NGO dedicated to the prevention of blindness that wants to promote the work it is carrying out in El Alto, Bolivia. Sebas recalls that his cameraman, Illia, told him a story about Gabor, a cinematographer who had gone blind, and he thinks it might be a good starting point to tackle the project.
Gabor, a Hungarian filmmaker residing in Spain, has been making a living from his film camera rental company ever since he went blind on a shoot eight years ago. Sebas contacts him and suggests that they work together on the project, but how will Gabor manage to film if he can’t see?
