After losing her eyesight, Ingrid, a smart woman, who struggles against dealing with her new life and overcoming her fear, but she leaves in a complete isolation and left her husband, the thing that challenges her.
With heightened sounds and Petersen's assured performance, Blind evocatively depicts the small triumphs and frustrating defeats of Ingrid's daily existence.
These lonely, possibly imagined secondary characters are portrayed with the same depth of feeling as the married couple but are even more engrossing as psychological projections of the wife.
Joachim Trier's ("Oslo, August 31st") cowriter Eskil Vogt makes his directorial debut with a story that calls back to the structure of "Reprise" as if crossed with Jeremy Podeswa's "The Five Senses."
"It's the dance between the two - the heady ideas and the depth of feeling - that make "Blind" such a joy to watch, keeping it from being either an exercise in meta in pathos."
