blinded by the darkness

Editor · Colorgrading · 1. Assistant Camera

A short about paralympic judoka Shugaa Nashwan.

Against all odds and defying internal and external negativism, BLINDED BY THE DARKNESS is a buoyant look into the spirited and inspiring story of a judoka fighting in the German Judo Bundesliga, even if his blindness may be an obstacle.
