🎬 We're heading to the Jacob Burns Film Center in Pleasantville, NY on April 7 for a powerful screening of Blind AF —a documentary following Shawn Cheshire, an Army veteran, Paralympian, and trailblazing cyclist who completed a 3,600-mile solo bike ride across America...completely blind. Shawn is a proud Guiding Eyes graduate, and her guide dog Nick is by her side as she redefines what’s possible. 🐾 Join us for this unforgettable ReelAbilities Film Festival: New York event—and stay after for a talkback with Shawn and director Gina LeVay! 🎟️ Details: 📍 Jacob Burns Film Center 🗓️ Monday, April 7 at 7:00 PM 🎤 Talkback with Shawn & Gina after the film Learn more: https://reelabilities.org/newyork/ Picture Description: The official movie poster for Blind AF. Cyclist Shawn Cheshire, wearing a teal jacket, black leggings, and a white helmet, rides a bicycle on a road with a mountainous landscape in the background. The sky is cloudy, and the mountains are partially covered in snow. Above the cyclist, the text reads: "BLIND AF" with Braille above the letters. A tagline below reads, "A true story of trauma, transcendence, and the power of self-belief." At the top, there are several film festival selection laurels, including "Official Selection Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival 2024" and "Official Selection Sedona International Film Festival." At the bottom, the credits mention "Tiger Stripe Media presents" and "In association with All Rise Films 'Blind AF'" with various production credits, including producer & director, Gina LeVay. (fb)
