The new film “Go Through The Dark” premieres this week in New York City at the DOC NY festival. In the film, a blind boy in China displays great skill at Go; raised by a single father with limited means, he faces deep societal prejudice against the blind.
“I think it would be a great story to inspire the blind community to chase their dreams,” director Yunhong Pu told the E-Journal. “And through the blind boy’s story, more people will know (and) be interested in Go.”
The film screens November 13 at 7:10pm and November 16 at 9:30pm at Cinépolis Chelsea.
The Nov. 13th screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director. The film will also screen online Nov. 14-28; click here for details.
