At First Sight

Romantic drama about a woman who falls in love with a blind man and persuades him to undergo an experimental operation to restore his sight.

Romantic drama. Virgil Adamson is a successful masseur working in a retreat outside New York; he is also blind. He leads a small and simple life until he meets high flying architect Amy Benic and the pair embark on a relationship.

Amy is excited to learn of a pioneering medical procedure which may be able to restore sight to Virgil. Reluctant at first, he agrees to the surgery. However, things are not as straightforward as they seem and neither Amy nor Virgil can prepare themselves for the obstacles that are about to confront them.
