“A rare glimpse into a world entirely unknown to most people… a unique insight into allowing those who are disabled to follow their dreams and desires… unseen is a title with many meanings—blindness, undocumented, social change, and more… However, what is most important about unseen is that it should be seen.” | Sabina Dana Plasse, Film Threat
