Imagine Page #5

Synopsis: Set in Lisbon, Portugal at an institute for the blind where children are taught to live with their disability, to not take risks, and to be comfortable at all times. Ian a non-conformist teacher who is also blind is hired at the school and introduces revolutionary methods: Rejecting the use of a cane, Ian teaches the children to achieve spatial orientation by using all of their senses including moving by the resonance of sound vibrations (echolocation), instinct, and the creative use of their imagination. Confident and even slightly over-aggressive, Ian charms the children and gives them a reason to hope, though they are always testing and questioning him to prove that he is one of them and never seem quite convinced of his sincerity. Ian's sessions take place right under the window of Eva (Alexandra Maria Lara), an adult patient who never leaves her room and does not speak to anybody. Surprisingly, she becomes one of his most responsive students and there is even a hint of romance. Th

With clicking.

My mouth is dry, it's hard to click...

The exercise is about...

hearing the bicycle

which Jose left on the courtyard.

Can you hear it?

Yes.

And can you hear it?

I can't hear bell.

Doesn't matter.

We want to hear the bike when it's not using the bell.

Even then it gives the sounds back.

Clicking, for example.

You can also snap your fingers or

tap with the shoes, the good shoes.

Can I start?

Yes!

Yes, please, show it.

It has a bell.

Impressive!

Do you use the sensor?

What do you mean?

The sensor which you have in your pocket.

I don't use any sensor!

But you do own an electronic gadget...

I saw it it your hand.

Do you mean this one?

Yes.

Do you use it sometimes?

Almost never.

It's ultrasonic range finder.

Is it useful in finding your way?

But you don't use the cane, right?

No, I don't.

So you use the sensor...

I use many things.

But rarely the sensor.

Can I see?

You click so well

that you don't need the cane.

I click rarely.

What you need are good shoes.

Did you hear the motorbike?

Which motorbike?

There is a motorbike on the courtyard, too.

You should have heard it.

It is close.

It surely reflects clicking.

I haven't heard it. Does it stand near the wall?

Or any other objects?

No.

So it stands too far.

Few more meters do make a difference.

Won't you find it without the sensor?

I've told you I don't use the sensor

to find my way.

Clever thing. It vibretes more

when the distance gets smaller.

Show me you don't need a sensor!

Yes, show them!

Show them!

He fell in carbon's chute!

He should use the cane as every blind person.

You are dangerous.

Dangerous for yourself and the other blind people.

I won't let you work

with my patients anymore.

I need to fire you.

I gave you good references.

And you'll get the whole month salary.

If I can't work with blind people anymore...

...maybe I could get another work

in the clinic?

What do you think of?

I don't know...

... we need the library in Braille.

Some blind children...

...are waiting for every free place here.

I can't sacrifice those places...

I can rent a room in the town

and come to work everyday as all the others.

I won't give you any work

in which you had any contact with the patients.

This is a private clinic.

It can maintain due to charity donations...

because it doesn't pay taxes to the order.

One missed step can destroy...

...the haritage of many years of hard work.

I'll think about an office work for you.

But you are forbidden...

...to walk around the clinic

without a cane.

The sensor is coming!

He was given a cane!

Lier!

Can you walk?

Why are you interested if I can walk?

Would you like to go somewhere?
