Witness the extraordinary transformation of seeing the world for the
first time and fall in love with life all over again. Directed by
Oscar-winner Irwin Winkler ("GoodFellas") and based on a true story by
Dr. Oliver Sacks ("Awakenings"), "At First Sight" is an exhilarating
adventure and the visual experience of a lifetime!
Starring Val Kilmer
("The Doors", "Batman Forever") and Academy Award-winner Mira Sorvino
("Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion"), this "poignant, uplifting
drama" (New York Daily News) explores the remarkable journey of a man
whose world was darkened by blindness but enlightened by the miracle of
science and the wonder of love.
Blind since childhood, Virgil Adamson
(Kilmer) is working as a masseur in an upstate New York spa when he
meets and falls in love with Amy Benic (Sorvino), a stressed-out,
career-driven architect. Certain that Virgil’s simple world will be
greatly enhanced by an operation to restore his sight, Amy ultimately
realizes that Virgil’s new vision puts a fresh focus on both their
lives.
