A fusion of dream and reality, this off-beat
drama is about a man’s search for meaning
amid the ache of despair. It chronicles Finn, a
middle-aged English teacher (David Strathairn),
as he enters a mid-life crisis impelled by a recent tragedy for which he counts himself responsible.
As he sets afoot selling encyclopedias to the
town locals, Finn’s anxieties begin to consume
him as he finds himself pursued by an unrelenting
ghost. The Sensation of Sight intertwines lives
of loneliness and disconnection, fatefully leading
Finn toward an unexpected and sublime awakening.
Produced by Darren Moorman, Buzz
McLaughlin, Aaron J. Wiederspahn, David
Strathairn, Madeline Ryan and Mark Constance.
Director of Photography: Christophe Lanzenberg.
