Empathy is faithful. There are lines between the levels of permanent, temporary, and risky. Sight is a film that parallels those values for a miracle. Written and directed by Andrew Hyatt, a revelation is one of realism. Sight is all about “realism” with monumental effects. The true story of Dr. Ming Wang provokes purpose in Sight. There is a broad and precise perspective. There are moments where the transitions struggle sometimes.

Terry Chen plays Dr. Ming Wang, and Greg Kinnear plays Dr Misha Bartnovsky. Ming is a Chinese Prodigy who grew up in China during the Cultural Revolution. Challenging events of Ming’s past had him around a blind individual. Ming found inspiration to restore people’s vision. His success has led him to become a world-renowned eye surgeon. His mentality is to the test. He is allowed to improve the vision of a young girl. Her name is Kajal (played by Mia Swaminathan). This procedure is risky. A young age means not much development.

What keeps coming to Ming’s mind is detrimental. Ming witnessed a horrific moment. Ming was a child. He was the witness of a stepmother blinding her adopted daughter. Sight’s writing finds its moments of shifting to the traumas of Ming repeatedly. It is thorough and faithful. The transitions between the present and the past just tended to throw me off in increments. It does give the notion that the procedure is risky for Kajal. With the help of Misha, Ming finds resilience in his research to create a miracle for those who are blind. 

Doing a procedure to change the view of life is presented with a surreal emotion in Sight. The thought of optimism is what is of importance. It is also an element that is a blur for Ming. With the human eye having many components to process, the complexity is mind-boggling. Can Ming create this miracle for Kajal?

The thought process of Ming is a layer of harrowing moments. He repeatedly thinks back to his past. He thinks about the time of his education, political tides, and the impact he has had on his own life. He feels that the past is the layer that can create an error in the procedure. Moving forward, he has a genuine heart.

There is a connection. There is also the sense that creating a permanent change for the better rises. Sight is a road of two directions. The first location is Ming and deep thought of his development. The second is the steps and the attention on the efforts to help Kajal gain her vision back. Sight soars with wonder. It leaves a mark of positive aspiration.

The center of creating enfranchisement dives into finding momentum poetically. The writing tries to over-examine moments. It thrives a heart of encouragement. The relationship between Ming and Misha (from the professional standpoint) creates that bind of medical studies. There are no results until a procedure is complete. Anxiousness of Sight has its eagerness as the moments of this task get closer.

My fascination with Sight is its context of persistence. Moments are blurred between transitioning (of the past and present), which creates the foundation of Ming’s successes. Ming dealt with political dynamics, but he fought to change lives. He does so by fixing the visions of his patients. When he does, they can see the many wonderful aspects of their own truly and indefinitely. Three out of four stars for Sight.
