Synopsis
Two people are closely related by unconventional forms of life and vision: Pedro Miranda, a young, blind visual artist; and Iris Palau, a clairvoyant.
Enlightened is a creative documentary with a touch of black humor and with an oneiric atmosphere that deals with mystery, blindness, arts, and experimentation. It bets on the exploration of the thin line dividing the visible from the invisible.
