SYNOPSIS: America's only all-blind theater company stages the American premier of The Braille Legacy, a musical about Louis Braille, who at age 15, invents a language that changes the world.
This powerful documentary film follows a company of blind actors (as well as their swarthy, partially-blind Director) from the beginning of rehearsals in 2019 through to the play’s debut in Los Angeles during the fall of 2022. Director Brian Weidling (WILDFLOWER, SPEAK) has teamed up with Executive Producer Daniel Voll (THE BLACKLIST) and Producers Dan Kruger and Kwame Morris to complete this incredible portrait of life through the lens of these talented blind actors and performers.
The film will be completing post-production during the winter of 2023.
STARS IN THE DARK is currently on course to launch into festivals in 2024.
