Bulgaria: Movie Screenings for Blind People Source: Pixabay

Specially adapted screenings enable visually impaired people to touch the magic of cinema. For the second year in the Sofia Film Fest, films with sound dubbing are presented to a blind audience. The Cinema House in Sofia gathered dozens of admirers of the seventh art with disturbed vision who came to the film "Submergence" by director Wim Wenders.

Paintings come to life in the mind of the blind audience in the first minutes of the movie "Submergence". Thanks to the special descriptive text, people with impaired vision can easily imagine each subsequent scene. 20-year-old Petya says it is not the first time for her to come to such screenings. For her, cinema is a very exciting experience even when there is no special dubbing.
