Efni: Ingrid er blind og býr með Morten manni sínum. Þegar hún er ein heima, þá situr hún í gluggasyllunni með tebolla og hlustar á útvarpið eða þau umhverfishljóð sem umlykja hana. Hún hræðist það að fara út úr íbúðinni og fer að gruna mann sinn um það að halda til í íbúðinni án þess að hún viti af, til þess eins að fylgjast með henni. Eða er hann kannski að spjalla við framhjáhaldið í tölvunni þegar hann liggur í rúminu með henni? Ímyndar hún sér nágranna sem verða ástfangnir? Myndin er tilraun til þess að spyrja spurningarinnar, hversu mikilvæg er sjónin myndrænni miðlun? Í þessari fyrstu mynd sinni leikur Eskil Vogt sér með raunverleikann og ímyndun.

Myndin var frumsýnd á Sundance kvikmyndahátíðinni 2014 þar sem Eskil Vogt vann til handritsverðlauna, en myndin var einnig sýnd á Berlinale, Alþjóðlegu kvikmyndahátíðinni í Berlín þar sem hún hlaut Europas Cinemas Label. Myndin er tilnefnd til Evrópsku kvikmyndaverðlaunanna árið 2014.

English: Ingrid is blind. She lives with her husband Morten. As soon as he is out of the house, she sits at the window with a cup of tea listening to the radio or to the sounds that surround her. Ingrid’s fear of leaving the apartment grows. She suspects that her husband sometimes stays at home secretly in order to observe her. Or perhaps he chats online with a mistress whilst sitting next to her in bed, pretending to answer business mails. Einar has a penchant for internet porn and women with long hair but he’s too shy to approach anyone. Elin lives opposite him and has nobody to call her own except for her child, who spends most of the time with its father. Ingrid’s life is connected to the lives of Einar and Elin. They seem to share some of her fears and at one point even her blindness. Ingrid is aware of Einar’s and Elin’s sexual desires and Elin is familiar with Ingrid’s preferences. Or are these two just figments of Ingrid’s imagination? Blind is an experiment: how important is sight for a visual medium? In his feature debut writer/director Eskil Vogt toys with illusion and reality, effortlessly pursuing plot conventions into the absurd.

The film premiered in-competition in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition at 2014 Sundance Film Festival on January 19, 2014. Vogt received the Screenwriting Award for Blind at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival. The film was later screened in the Panorama section of the 64th Berlin International Film Festival where it received Europa Cinemas Label. The film is nominated as the best film for the European Film Awards 2014.
