What They Don't Talk About When They Talk About Love

Mouly SURYA 2013 Indonesia, USA Fiction color 106min Indonesian HDCAM
Fitri, 20 years old and blind, lives in a school for youth with special needs. She is in love with a ghost doctor who is just a regular man, named Edo, who is deaf. Fitri's classmate Diana is a myopic that can only see objects within a disctance of one inch. Her beauty-worshipping mother is obsessed with Diana's looks; the young woman herself still feels like a child: at age 17 she hasn't menstruated yet. Her life is changed when she meets Andhika who lost his eyesight in an accident. Would things be different if they could see?
