Comedian, columnist and Feyenoord supporter Vincent Bijlo has been blind since birth. ‘My images are sounds’, he says.And now, he is in danger of losing his hearing as well. As his hearing is deteriorating, his world is taking on new forms. It comes down to ‘a stupid genetic error’, but there’s no reason to play the victim. ‘Why should I give up now? It has only just begun,’ Bijlo said in his theatre performance.
It’s a sign of his enormous resilience. This documentary shows how Bijlo deals with his new ‘fate’, combatively and humorously.
