Blink (2024) is a documentary directed by Daniel Roher and Edmund Stinson that chronicles the year-long global journey of the Pelletier family. Faced with the reality that three of their four children—Mia, Colin, and Laurent—have retinitis pigmentosa, a condition leading to eventual blindness, parents Edith Lemay and Sébastien Pelletier embark on an ambitious quest to fill their children’s visual memories. Their travels span diverse landscapes, from the deserts of Namibia to the mountains of Nepal, aiming to create lasting impressions before their children’s sight fades.

Throughout their journey, the family encounters both the wonders and challenges of the world, strengthening their bonds and resilience. The film captures intimate moments of joy, struggle, and discovery, offering a poignant reflection on the importance of seizing the present. “Blink” transcends a typical travelogue by delving deep into the emotional landscape of a family confronting an uncertain future with courage and love.
