What Imagine Is About

A teacher known for unorthodox methods arrives from England at a school for the blind in Lisbon. Ian works with sound and echo, teaching his students to imagine the world by hearing it and so, in a sense, to see it. He is blind himself, uses no cane, and walks the city alone. Some of the students doubt he is blind at all, and part of the administration considers his method dangerous. Andrzej Jakimowski's film watches Eva, who speaks to nobody and stays away from lessons, slowly come outside. Edward Hogg plays Ian and Alexandra Maria Lara plays Eva. It is a quiet film that treats sight as a question of imagination rather than of ability.
