a Message" series on Tuesday, Nov. 9 with a documentary film titled
"Blindsight." The film will be shown at Mahlon Adams Pavilion in

"Blindsight" highlights the gripping adventure of six Tibetan
teenagers on their journey to climb a mountain in the shadow of
Everest. A dangerous journey soon becomes a seemingly impossible
challenge made all the more remarkable by the fact that the teenagers
are blind. The film provides a glimpse into the lives of individuals
with unique abilities, allowing us to appreciate the differences and
similarities of all people, and to share in their challenges and
triumphs.
