"Featuring exceptional people doing extraordinary things, BLINDSIGHT is one of those documentaries with the power to make you reexamine your entire life..."
- Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
"[A] complex, inspirational documentary....Look deeper, though, and Lucy Walker's observant film is about profound East-West differences in the importance of journey versus destination..."
- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
"[A] complex drama about differing values and definitions of success, exploring the limits of transcendence as well as the transcending of limits."
- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
"BLINDSIGHT crystallizes into a surprisingly penetrating sociological study offering intriguing insights into a hitherto closed culture."
- Catherine Wheatley, Sight and Sound
