It was World Sight Day on the 14th of October, a global event meant to draw attention on blindness and vision impairment. In a similar vein, The 2018 short film "In The Dark" followed the daily lives, hopes and dreams of the visually-impaired, who live and work amongst the hustle and bustle of Brickfields, KL. The film is being re-released for this week's Weekend Watch with FreedomFilmFest and we find out more about the film and the different themes it tackles from the co-directors of the piece, Low Watan and Low Choon Chyuan.
