*Warning: Video may cause tears.*
Blind Devotion by Jubilee Project is a short film about a wedded couple who must overcome the obstacle of the wife’s increasing blindness. In the video, the couple goes through their daily routine twice, but at two different times. One of the most powerful scenes is when the couple first awakes and playfully attacks each other. Although the moment lasts less than a minute, it becomes an immensely emotional part of the day.
The wife sets a calm yet spirited mood by waking up the husband in the early morning. This, in turn, creates a lively response from the husband, who evidently has a happy and healthy relationship with her.
However, the second time this morning scene occurs, it is completely different. The wife, who is now becoming blind, is lost in her own thoughts. Sitting upright, she is startled by her husband who playfully attacks her again, but creates a completely negative response from her.
The contrast in the responses from the two scenes is greatly important and emphasizes the fear the wife has regarding her loss of vision. Lost in her own darkness, she must overcome this obstacle along with her loving husband.
