Storyline

Sebastià faces his blindness courageously. He doubts about entering a violin contest, but Fred, his best friend, promises to accompany him on the piano. A new girl arrives in the school, Samantha, who is depressive and unable to accept the blindness that is suddenly taking over her life. Sebastià falls in love with her, but Fred, who feels jealous, gets to tear him apart from her. Sebastià's father, who cannot accept his son's disability, is drinking more and more. Sebastià, affected by the misunderstandings with Samantha, decides to dump his music studies. But it is his father who encourages him to go on with them. Samantha's teacher clears all the misunderstandings between the teenagers and they finally start enjoying their love. Sebastià is convinced that Fred will not be accompanying him in the contest, but his friend is waiting for him on stage. Finally they are reconciled and that means an absolute triumph in front of the public.

Wonderful!

I saw this movie on T.V and though it was absolutely wonderful,

It's about Sebastian a blind teenager who hates how his life is going, he meets Samantha who is also loosing her vision, who gives him a new prespective in life. This movie is not just a teen movie..it's more then that. It's about first love and having to deal with the obstacles the life and friend throw at you.

I gave this movie a 4/5....
