In My Mind's Eye

Overview

Patty, a student of 13, and Trish, a teacher of 26, are legally blind but refuse to be handicapped. Each girl's story is told in separate scenes that eventually blend with a realization that Patty and Trish are one person. We meet the men in her/their lives and explore Patricia's relationship with her mother. Occasionally, the actresses playing Patty and Trish switch places and we see glimpses of a maturing Patty or a seemingly childish Trish. This is a story of self acceptance, courage and, above all, a story of love.
