Shortwave 1310…

This week on Outlook we’re reviewing the November Netflix release of “All the Light we Cannot See,” adapted from the 2014 novel by Anthony Doerr.

We share the audio described trailer and about what it means to have representation in storytelling and in media with ATLWCS having a lead actress who is blind, playing the blind character in this series, along with the important part an accessibility consultant played on the set.

What would we do if we found ourselves in a position like Marie-Laure, the main character in “All the Light We Cannot See”? We ask ourselves, put ourselves in that position of being caught up in a war we did not choose and much more in this one.

So be sure to check out the series for yourself streaming now on Netflix!
