About This Movie

Guiding Sights is a deeply introspective documentary that follows Rafael Egaña as he grapples with the impending loss of his vision.

It’s not just about sight – it delves into how images retain meaning beyond the visual. The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to sit with Rafael’s reflections and the haunting beauty of the photographs. It’s both personal and universal, raising questions about perception and memory. There's a rawness to Rafael's journey that is compelling, contrasting the ephemeral nature of sight with the permanence of memory.
