Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut

Edith Lemay and Sébastien Pelletier first noticed their daughter, Mia, was having vision problems when she was 3 years old. The diagnosis took years to pinpoint but, by the time Mia was 7, they had identified it as retinitis pigmentosa, a rare genetic condition that causes a loss or decline in vision over time. It skipped their second child, Léo, but both their younger sons, Colin and Laurent, received the same diagnosis. The three children will ultimately lose their eyesight entirely. When The school’s vision impairment advisor suggested they fill the children’s visual memory by looking at pictures in books, Edith thought, ‘I’m not going to show her an elephant in a book; I’m going to take her to see a real elephant…And I’m going to fill her memory with the best, most beautiful images I can.”

That’s the subject of the beautiful new documentary film BLINK arriving in theaters October 4. As the Canadian-based family began making plans to spend a year traveling around the globe, they canvassed the children’s opinions on what they wanted to do – which included swimming with dolphins, horseback riding in Mongolia and watching the sunrise from a mountain -- the bucket list became the family’s North Star.

As a former resort activity coordinator, Edith Lemay has no shortage of ideas to entertain her little troupe. She is passionate about sunsets and water sports, particularly scuba diving. During the trip, Edith was responsible for the luggage, schooling, meals, and social media. She is rarely seen in photos because she is always behind the camera and will publish a forthcoming book in French about their adventure.

Edmund Stenson’s work as director, producer and editor spans both documentary and fiction and focuses on social issues, loners and nomads. Before directing BLINK, he was an associate editor on the BAFTA- and Oscar®-winner Navalny, a documentary-thriller about the Russian dissident’s poisoning.

It’s not because I live in the south…  A lot of people around the world are cracking their teeth then having them pulled.  What gives? War seems to be everywhere.  Not just in countries but on nearly every street. Would our ancestors be happy with our current lifestyle? I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

Award winning screenwriter and playwright, Moira Buffini turns her talents to her first YA dystopian trilogy. As an Olivier Award–winning UK playwright and BAFTA-nominated screenwriter, Buffini has created in SONGLIGHT the first in epic fantasy trilogy: The world of the Torch Trilogy is incredibly immersive, expansive, and richly imagined. The action is just getting going in SONGLIGHT, Book 1 of this epic story. We’re two songs joined. And there’s a word for that. A harmony. Elsa is used to hiding the most important parts of herself—her feelings for Rye, her distaste for a world ruled by men, and, most crucially, her gift of songlight. She buries that secret deep inside. In Brightland, those with songlight are called Unhumans and are abhorred. Rye is the only other person Elsa has known with songlight, and their shared bond has brought them together. Elsa’s world begins to fall apart one desperate, heart-wrenching day and she doesn’t know where to turn until a girl appears before her. But the girl isn’t really there—her songlight has been drawn to Elsa’s frantic grief. Elsa lives in a remote seaside village; Nightingale, her new friend, lives in a city hundreds of miles away with her father, a government official responsible for rooting out Unhumans. The two never expected to connect via songlight. But when they do, and when they realize the extent of their power, they’ll be thrust in the middle of a war that threatens their very existence
